ABSTRACT:
The same analog signal is inputted to an 8-bit AD converter and to a 4-bit AD converter to obtain an 8-bit digital data and a 4-bit digital data for the same sample value of the analog signal. Values of the 8-bit digital data and 4-bit digital data are compared with each other. The 8-bit digital data is outputted as a digital signal for the sample value of the analog signal when a difference between these values is not greater than one-half the quantity that corresponds to the least significant bit of the 4-bit digital data, and the 4-bit digital data is outputted as a digital signal for the sample value of the analog signal in other cases. There is realized AD conversion which operates apparently at high speeds maintaining high accuracy.
