Abstract
An A/D converter includes a resistor ladder for generating a plurality of reference potentials, a comparing section for comparing each of the reference potentials against an input analog signal to output a thermometric code, and a dynamic encoder composed of a combinational circuit to encode the thermometric code to a binary code by responding a clock signal. The A/D conversion is finished in a single clock cycle at a high speed, with a reduced number of elements and reduced power dissipation.
