ABSTRACT:
An analog signal is converted to a digital value having a given number of bits that define given quantization levels, by repeatedly sampling the analog signal at a resolution that is less than that which is defined by the given number of bits. Lower resolution sampling results are thereby obtained. The lower resolution sampling results are summed to obtain the digital value having the given number of bits.
