Abstract:
The present invention is related to an analogue-to-digital (A/D) converter comprising at least two voltage comparator devices. Each of the voltage comparator devices is arranged for being fed with a same input signal and for generating an own internal voltage reference. The two internal voltage references are different. Each voltage comparator is arranged for generating an output signal indicative of a bit position of a digital approximation of said input signal.
