Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for operating an SAR ADC. The SAR ADC receives an analog signal and receives a first instance of conversion trigger signal. The SAR ADC, in response to receiving the first instance of the conversion trigger signal, generates a set of digital bit values corresponding to the analog signal. The SAR ADC, while one or more digital bit values corresponding to the analog signal are being generated, receives a second instance of the conversion trigger signal and temporarily stores the one or more digital bit values in response to receiving the second instance of the conversion trigger signal.
