Abstract: In a phase adjustment circuit, a binary circuit is configured to output a binary signal on the basis of an edge of a video signal. A phase-delayed clock signal generation circuit is configured to generate a phase-delayed clock signal having a later phase than a phase of a clock signal by a first delay amount. A delay time control circuit is configured to cause a phase of the binary signal and the phase of the phase-delayed clock signal to match each other by adjusting the first delay amount. A sampling signal generation circuit is configured to generate a sampling signal having a later phase than the phase of the clock signal by a second delay amount. The second delay amount is in accordance with both a phase shift amount, which is based on the clock signal, and the first delay amount.

Abstract: A sampling circuit in a successive approximation type analog-to-digital (A/D) converting device samples a pair of analog signals constituting a differential input signal. A capacitor circuit reflects a signal level of a reference signal in the pair of analog signals through an attenuation capacitance unit and a binary capacitance unit to generate a pair of voltage signals. A comparison circuit compares the pair of voltage signals. A control circuit determines a value of each bit of a digital signal on the basis of the result of the comparison and reflects the value in the reference signal. The attenuation capacitance unit includes a fixed capacitance unit connected between a signal node at which the sampled analog signals are held and a predetermined potential node and a variable capacitance unit connected between the signal node and the predetermined potential node in parallel with the fixed capacitance unit.
