ABSTRACT:
An A/D conversion device, for converting an analog input voltage Vin into a digital output signal encoded in N bits OUT(0:N-1), includes a first decoder (FNE) for generating the least significant bits OUT(0:K) of the output signal, and a second decoder (CRS) for generating signals which are representative of transitions to which the most significant bits OUT(i+1) of the output signal are to be submitted, for i=k to N-2. Each transition of the bit OUT(i+1) is signaled by signals referred to as antecedent signals A(i+1) and subsequent signals P(i+1), while an encoder (ENC) is provided for synchronizing each transition with a transition of the bit OUT(i) of the next lower weight.
