Abstract
Systems and methods include an analog-to-logic circuit and a digital processing component. The analog-to-logic circuit receives a first electrical signal, outputs a first logic signal indicating whether or not a voltage of the first pulse is greater than a first threshold voltage, and outputs a second logic signal indicating whether or not the voltage of the first pulse is greater than a second threshold voltage. The digital processing component receives the first logic pulse and the second logic pulse, determines, based on the second logic signal, if the first pulse is valid, and determines, based on the first logic signal, a first trigger time associated with the first pulse.
