Abstract
A sigma-delta converter including a sigma-delta modulator including at least one analog filter capable, for each cycle of a conversion phase, of receiving an internal analog signal originating from the analog input signal and of supplying an analog output signal, wherein: the contribution of the internal analog signal to the output value of the filter is smaller at a given cycle of the conversion phase than at a previous cycle, the contributions to the different cycles being governed by a first predetermined law which is a function of the rank of the cycle; and the duration of a given cycle of the conversion phase is shorter than the duration of a previous cycle, the durations of the different cycles being governed by a second predetermined law which is a function of the rank of the cycle in the conversion phase.
