A multi-zone analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is provided that includes a track-and-hold (T/H) stage having a bandwidth of L Hertz (Hz) to accept an analog input signal, a clock input to accept a clock signal with a clock frequency of P Hz, and N deinterleaved signal outputs with a combined bandwidth of M Hz. N×(P/2)=M, L>Q×M, and Q is an integer >1. The T/H stage is able to sample an analog input signal in the Qth Nyquist Zone, where Q is an integer. A quantizer stage has N interleaved signal inputs connected to corresponding T/H stage signal outputs, a clock input to accept the clock signal, and an output to supply a digital output signal having a bandwidth of M Hz. A packaging interface typically connects the T/H stage to the quantizer stage, and has a bandwidth less than the clock frequency.
