Abstract:
A time domain A/D converter group includes a plurality of individual A/D converters, each of the individual A/D converters is connected to a reference signal generation circuit to generate a first reference signal for sweeping in a full scale range and a second reference signal for repeating plurality of times to sweep in a limited voltage range, and each of the individual A/D converters includes a reference voltage selection circuit for switching the first reference signal or the second reference signal, a comparator for comparing an input signal with the first reference signal or the second reference signal, for generating a comparison output signal, an internal A/D converter for performing an A/D conversion using the comparison output signal from the comparator, and an accumulation adder-subtractor for outputting an average signal of A/D conversion values obtained from the A/D conversion when the second reference signal is selected.
