Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a two-step incremental analog-to-digital converter and a two-step conversion method using the converter, belonging to the technical field of electronic circuit design and manufacture. Background technique [0002] The role of the analog-to-digital converter (Analog-to-Digital Converter, ADC) is to convert an analog signal into a corresponding digital signal, and is widely used in electronic systems. High-performance sensors require the used analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to achieve high conversion accuracy, meet low power consumption, small size requirements, and increase conversion speed at the same time. [0003] In the prior art, such as figure 1 , for discrete-time input systems, the incremental delta-sigma analog-to-digital converter (Sigma-Delta ADC) has the advantage of high precision over other types of converters, but the conversion speed and power consumption are large. The incremental delta-sigma analog-to-digit...
