Abstract

This paper presents the development of an Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) based on a low-temperature superconductor (Nb) chip and room-temperature interface modules for applications in digital receivers for communications, radars, and electronic warfare. The ADC design, MATLAB simulations, and experimental results of single- and two-tone tests are described.
