Abstract
A successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converting method includes executing a sampling operation and a comparing operation according to a conversion clock by using an SAR analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to convert an analog input signal into a digital output signal, and resetting a sampling and digital-to-analog converting circuit of the SAR ADC when a SAR procedure of the comparing operation is completed.
