Summary In this paper, a low‐power and high‐resolution latch‐based time‐to‐digital converter (TDC) based on a multistage scheme is proposed. The proposed multistage TDC includes coarse, middle, and fine stages. The coarse stage is a new design of the flash TDC that is implemented by latches without using the delay cell. Also, the middle stage is a new design of the Vernier TDC with employed latches. The fine stage comprises parallel latches with different input loads.
