ABSTRACT:
In an analog/digital conversion circuit, selection signals XA, XB and XC inputted from a lower order comparing circuit unit 5 are assigned priority by weighting the same, in a selection signal weighting circuit 11. When a plurality of the selection signals XA, XB and XC are raised up to an "H", in that, (XA, XB, XC), (XA, XB), (XA, XC) or (XB, XC), line signals SC, SB, and corresponding to weighted selection signals having a higher priority XBO, and XAO are outputted as a higher order conversion code data D1. Thereby a more reliable signal is outputted as the higher order conversion code even if an erroneous operation is caused in the lower order comparing circuit unit 5 and the accuracy of the analog/digital conversion circuit is further enhanced in comparison with the conventional ones.
