Equivalent input bandwidth is calculated with the following formula: B
WEQ
= 0.22∕√(TR
COMP

− TR
IN

), where B
WEQ
is the equivalent bandwidth formula, TR
IN
is the 20% to
80% transition time of a quasi Gaussian signal applied to the comparator input, and TR
COMP
is the effective transition time digitized by the comparator.
