An A/D converter includes an A/D conversion unit and an output unit. The A/D conversion unit includes a second A/D converter (successive approximation register A/D converter) and generates first digital data having a first number of bits and second digital data having a second number of bits, where the second number of bits is smaller than the first number of bits. The output unit provides first output information that is the first digital data and also provides second output information based on the second digital data. The output unit provides the second output information before providing the first output information.
