This article demonstrates a digitally friendly time-based analog-to-digital converter (ADC) exploiting Dickson charge-pump (CP) as part of a voltage-to-time conversion (VTC) implemented in 28-nm CMOS. In the proposed technique. the Dickson CP generates a ramp signal that is compared with the input voltage to generate a pulse of commensurable widths. which is then fed to a D-type flip-... https://www.roneverhart.com/Western-Digital-Ultrastar-DC-HC570-WUH722222ALE6L4-0F48155-22TB-7-2K-RPM-SATA-6Gb-s-512e-SE-3-5in-Refurbished-HDD/
