ABSTRACT:
An A-D converter which oversamples the input analog signal, at a frequency greater than the Nyquist frequency, and achieves high precision linear coding by performing simple operations at a high sampling frequency f.sub.H while complicated operations are performed at a low sampling frequency f.sub.s. The high sampling frequency may be reduced to the low sampling frequency through a two-step reduction using a sampling frequency converter to reduce the frequency to an intermediate frequency f.sub.M and an integrator/sampler to reduce the sampling frequency further to f.sub.s or directly with the use of an FIR filter having a frequency characteristic in which attenuation is large in the out-of-band and gain deviation is small in-band.
