An analog to digital converter (ADC) circuit including: a voltage-controlled delay circuit (VCDC) configured to: sample a received analog signal based on an input clock signal to generate analog signal samples; generate an output signal representative of the input clock signal shifted in the time domain with a delay based on the analog signal samples; and a time to digital converter (TDC) coupled to the voltage-controlled delay circuit and configured to generate a digital output signal based on the output signal.

A sampling circuit includes a linearization circuit connected to a first input terminal for receiving a first input signal and a second input terminal for receiving a second input signal, a first switch connected between the first input terminal and the linearization circuit, a second switch connected between the first input terminal and the linearization circuit, a third switch connected between the second input terminal and the linearization circuit, a fourth switch connected between the second input terminal and the linearization circuit, a first capacitor connected between the linearization circuit and a first output terminal for outputting a first sampled signal, and a second capacitor connected between the linearization circuit and a second output terminal for outputting a second sampled signal.

A circuit comprises a plurality of bit lines, a global counter configured to provide a count value, a global reference source, a plurality of capacitors, a comparator, a storage element, and capacitor selector circuitry. The capacitor selector circuitry is configured to select, in dependence on the count value, one or more capacitors from the plurality of capacitors, and wherein the selection of the one or more capacitors is further in dependence on pre-coded codes receivable from an agent separate from the circuit, the pre-coded codes enabling specifying respective first and second sets of the plurality of capacitors as respective one or more capacitors having respective first and second capacitance values, the pre-coded codes further enabling specifying selection of the first set to be performed at an earlier time than selection of the second set, and the second capacitance value is more than the first capacitance value.
