Hi
Do you also require precision in the ~ 1 ps range as well as resolution?
If so, that opens up a whole series of issues about:
1) How long since it was calibrated
2) Temperature and other environmental effects
3) Traceability of calibration
Not a simple or cheap problem to solve.
A little more details in requirements should be needed...
What rate of measurements? 1 measurement per second? 10? 100? 100k?
What trigger-jitter is tolerated? 1 ps RMS? 10 ps RMS? 100 ps RMS?
What linearity requirement is needed? 1 ps? 100 ps?
Do you mean that "<= 1 ps resolution" really means that time
quantization needs to be less than 1 ps?
Essentially, a little more insight to the actual need for the
application at hand is needed for good assistance.
BTW. The ACAM TDC-GPX gets you down to 10 ps...
Cheers,
Magnus

Magnus,
with regard to your questions:
measurement rate = 1 kHz
rms jitter <= 10 ps
linearity better 3 ps
resolution of 1 ps is the minimum differential measurement which can be
made (ie granularity).
Thanks.
