TIME-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER, LIDAR SYSTEM AND DEVICE

The present invention relates to a time-to-digital converter (100) having a self-calibrating n-stage chain of a number n of propagation delay elements (50) which are parallel-series connected betweena clock signal line (12) for supplying a clock signal (16) and a stop signal line (13) for supplying a stop signal (17), and a charge pump and phase detector unit (10) for feedback control of the propagation delay elements (50) with a first input (10-1) as the controlled variable input, a second input (10-2) as the reference variable input, and an output (10-3) as the command variable output. Theclock signal line (12) is connected to the first input (10-1) of the charge pump and phase detector unit (10), a push-pull line (14) for supplying a push-pull signal (18) is connected to the second input (10-2), and the propagation delay elements (50) are connected to the output (10-3) of the charge pump and phase detector unit (10) for feedback. 本发明涉及一种时间数字转换器装置(100)，其具有：数量n个门延时环节(50)的自校准的n级链，其混联连接在用于输送节拍信号(16)的节拍信号线路(12)
