Generally speaking, any ADC approach that uses /affordable/ ADC's (read: no GHz 
sampling rates) will result in lower number of timestamps per second than with 
the TDC in fpga approach.
I know, I know :) As I said, first I'm looking around the different techniques, advantages, disadvantages... I would like to know if the ADC approach has other advantages


So if you only have to timestamp at a moderate rate, then the adc could very 
well suit your needs. If you want to do continuous timestamping at a high rate 
then the adc approach doesn't cut it. Or if it can, I'd be interested in some 
good reading material about that...

My main current application is jitter measurement and characterization, so a moderate rate could be enough (but the greater the rate, the better, of course :) ), but I prefer in this case, higher precission more than higher rate.
Besides with the fpga approach it is solve problem once, instantiate many times 
== multi-channel TDC for a nice price.
Of course :)

Regards,

Javier
