    Abstract: An example semiconductor device includes a plurality of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) configured to receive an analog signal from at least one amplifier connected to a pad, and a logic circuit configured to control the plurality of ADCs. The logic circuit is configured to activate first active ADCs, among the plurality of ADCs, in a first operating mode, and to activate second active ADCs, among the plurality of ADCs, in a second operating mode different from the first operating mode. A first latency required for the first active ADCs to receive the analog signal and to output a first digital signal is longer than a second latency required for the second active ADCs to receive the analog signal and to output a second digital signal.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to successive approximation register analog-to-digital converters. An example successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter includes a first sampling and holding circuit that samples an analog signal at a first point in time and generates a first input voltage, a second sampling and holding circuit that samples the analog signal at a second point in time and generates a second input voltage, and a first analog-to-digital converter. The first analog-to-digital converter performs a feed forward equalization function by receiving the first input voltage and the second input voltage, sampling the first input voltage and the second input voltage, and outputting a multi-bit digital signal based on a sampling result of the first input voltage and a sampling result of the second input voltage.
