ABSTRACT:
An analog-to-digital converter includes a reference voltage generator that outputs a reference voltage, a first comparator and a second comparator that compare the reference voltage and a voltage of an input signal and output a digital signal having a first logical value or a second logical value, and a calibrator that compares an output of the first comparator and an output of the second comparator and outputs a first offset control signal and a second offset control signal. The first comparator sets an offset value having a positive or negative polarity to an output inversion threshold level based on the first offset control signal, and the second comparator sets an offset value having a polarity opposite to the polarity set by the first comparator to an output inversion threshold level based on the second offset control signal.
