Digital slope analog to digital converter and signal conversion method
Abstract:
A digital slope analog to digital converter includes a charge injection digital to analog converter (DAC) circuit, a comparator circuit, a detector circuit, and a control logic circuitry. The charge injection DAC circuit respectively samples input signals via first and second capacitors and generates a first signal via the first capacitor and a second signal via the second capacitor. The comparator circuit compares the first signal with the second signal to generate decision signals. The detector circuit generates a flag signal according to the decision signals. The control logic circuitry generates an enable signal according to the flag signal and generates a digital output when the comparator circuit detects a crossing point of the first and second signals. The charge injection DAC circuit gradually adjusts charges stored in the first and/or the second capacitor according to the enable signal until the crossing point is detected.
