Abstract
An analog-digital converter capable of outputting stable conversion codes even when an analog signal is input in the vicinity of a boundary between adjacent analog-digital conversion regions. The analog-digital converter as described is provided with ignoring regions between the conversion regions. When the signal level of the analog signal is located within one of the ignoring regions, the analog-digital conversion code outputted from the output circuit is maintained in a next period.
