    Abstract: An A/D converter includes a capacitor DAC, a resistor DAC, a first capacitive element, and a comparator. The capacitor DAC is configured to convert high-order M bits, where M and N are integers equal to or greater than 2, and the resistor DAC is configured to convert low-order N bits. The first capacitive element is provided between the capacitor DAC and the resistor DAC, and the comparator is configured to compare an input signal voltage with a voltage output from the capacitor DAC. The resistor DAC generates and outputs a voltage by adding or subtracting a wait based on redundant bits in addition to N-bit resolution.
