Abstract

Provided is a low-power, high-speed successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The low-power, high-speed SAR ADC includes a bootstrapping unit configured to receive inputs of first and second analog signals, a double-bit output SAR analog-to-digital conversion unit configured to output a two-bit digital signal for each clock cycle section with respect to the first and second analog signals applied through the bootstrapping unit, and a single-bit output SAR analog-to-digital conversion unit configured to output a one-bit digital signal for each clock cycle section with respect to the first and second analog signals applied through the bootstrapping unit.
