Abstract
An all high-T-c periodic threshold comparator for application in a 4-b it superconductive A/D converter has been realized and tested. The the oretical threshold curve of the comparator is calculated and compared to the measured results. Furthermore, the thermal noise immunity and t he influence of flux-how are considered, resulting in practical design constraints for the comparator circuit.
