ABSTRACT:
In an A/D convertor, one comparator is provided for the most significant bit of the output digital signal, two for the second bit, and three each for the third and lower-order bits. When a compare operation is being performed by one of the three comparators that are provided for each of the third and lower bits, the remaining two comparators provide outputs in response to which output switch circuits perform setting of two reference voltages that are specified by the comparison result of a comparator corresponding to an output digital signal two bits higher.
