Title:
ANALOG/DIGITAL CONVERTER AND SEMICONDUCTOR INTEGRATED CIRCUIT DEVICE USING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/039859
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a digital calibration type analog/digital converter formed by a main analog/digital converter and a reference analog/digital converter and having a high sample rate and a high resolution.  The converter can reduce the power consumption and eliminate the need of a sample and hold circuit at the front end.  For this, the converter compensates the affect of the skew between the sampling clocks of the main analog/digital converter and the reference analog/digital converter by post calibration by a skew correction unit.
