Nonuniform Pulse Code Modulation Encoder using Double Polysilicon Technology

A new monolithic PCM-encoder is presented. It essentially consists of a single eleven bit double polysilicon capacitor array and an improved multiple access comparator. No unity gain amplifier is required. The circuit meets the CCIT specifications.
