“…To obtain the binary response, we will compare the frequencies of pairs of oscillators so that we can construct a 32-bit array, whose first bit (the most significant) will be a 0 or a 1 depending on whether the difference is positive or negative (i.e., the sign of the difference), and the remaining 31 bits will be the result of the subtraction converted to a binary number (Fig 2a). Compensated measurement is a technique that normally uses the sign bit [4] and, in this work, we will use an additional bit extracted from the difference between frequencies, to create a second order binary response twice the length. To obtain the binary response we will use a Zynq 7000 SoC on which we will an array of 51 ring oscillators, thus obtaining 50-bit words by comparing consecutive oscillators [5].…”
