A characterisation of the Timepix4 pixel front-end with a strong focus on timing performance is presented. Externally generated test pulses were used to probe the per-pixel time-to-digital converter (TDC) and measure the time-bin sizes by…

Intrinsic nonlinearity in FPGA-based time-to-digital converters (TDCs) is often treated as a calibration issue and evaluated mainly through post-correction metrics. In quantum key distribution (QKD), however, raw delay-line nonuniformity…
