Abstract
An successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter is provided. The successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter includes a digital-to-analog converter, a successive approximation register, a comparator, and a threshold voltage determining unit. In this context, the threshold voltage determining unit is configured to dynamically determine the threshold voltage of the comparator on the basis of the input signal of the digital-to-analog converter or the output signal of the comparator.
