Abstract
A parallel comparison type A/D converter having a hysterisis is disclosed in which a reference voltage level for comparing with an input analog signal is switched according to a digital converted signal so that the output digital value has a hysterisis characteristic with respect to the input analog signal. Thus, no flickers or chattering in a displayed segment of a display unit occurs when the input analog signal has a value in close to one of the reference voltages to be compared.
