Abstract
A charge integration algorithmic analog-to-digital converter utilizes one operational amplifier to perform an algorithm analog-to-digital conversation. In a first operating cycle, the ratio of a third capacitor to a fourth capacitor is used as a gain to determine an output voltage and an output bit. The output voltage is held in a first and second capacitors. In the second operating cycle, the ratio of the first capacitor to the second capacitor is used to determine an output voltage and an output bit. The output voltage is held in the third and fourth capacitors. The first and second operating cycles are repeated for generating converted digital data.
