An integrating analog to digital converter (ADC) is disclosed that comprises a Delay Locked Loop (DLL) (2, 50) which is synchronized to a reference clock signal (12). A rising edge of a clock signal therefore propagates through the DLL once each clock cycle. In use, the integrating ADC converts an analog input signal to a digital output signal dependent upon a timing measurement of an integration carried out by an integrator (4). The timing measurement is taken by reading the logical states of the individual delay cells in the DLL. This enables the position of the rising edges of the clock signal to be determined and used as a timing measurement.
