When digitizing a voltage, a capacitor is charged, through an impedance, to a voltage value (Um) dependent on the voltage to be digitized. The limits of that one of a plurality of voltage ranges in which said voltage value (Um) lies, are ascertained, and the two limits of that voltage range are defined as a first limit and second limit; the voltage at the capacitor is modified to the first limit by a charge modification circuit containing an impedance, and a first time interval needed therefor is identified; the voltage at the capacitor is modified to the second limit; the voltage at the capacitor is modified from the second to the first limit via the charge modification circuit. A seond time interval needed therefor is identified. Based on values of the first time interval and second time interval, a digital value is calculated, which serves as an indication of how much the voltage value (Um) at the capacitor differs from one of said two limits.
