ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an analog-to-digital converter. The analog-to-digital converter, for conversion of a signal for digitization into a digital signal, contains a number of comparators, each of which has a first and second input and an output. The digitized signal is provided at said output. Each comparator is further provided with an impedance network, coupled to at least one input of the comparator, whereby an impedance network is wired between the corresponding comparator and the signal for digitization and between the corresponding comparator and a first electrical reference potential. The impedance networks are arranged such that the comparators are essentially brought to the same working point in the region of the specific decision threshold thereof.
