    摘要: A pipelined analog-to-digital converter includes: a first switched capacitor network, a first digital-to-analog converter, a second switched capacitor network, a second digital-to-analog converter, and an operational amplifier. The outputs from the first switched capacitor network and the first digital-to-analog converter form a first subtraction signal. The outputs from the second switched capacitor network and the second digital-to-analog converter form a second subtraction signal. The operational amplifier is arranged to operably generate an output signal based on the first subtraction signal or the second subtraction signal, and to operably switch coupling relationship of multiple candidate capacitors of the operational amplifier based on the magnitude of an input signal of a prior stage circuit, so that only a portion of the multiple candidate capacitors could be participated in the generation of the output signal at a time.
