摘要： The present technology relates to an image sensor, an electronic apparatus, a comparator, and a drive method which enable achievement of a noise reduction while maintaining high speed of AD conversion. An ADC for performing AD conversion for an electrical signal output from a pixel includes a comparator that compares the electrical signal and a reference signal, a level of which is changed and a counter that counts time necessary for a change of the reference signal to a coincidence of the electrical signal and the reference signal on the basis of output signals from the comparator. The comparator includes a differential amplifier that outputs a comparison result signal indicating a comparison result obtained by comparing the electrical signal and the reference signal and a plurality of output amplifiers that outputs signals obtained by amplifying the comparison result signal output from the differential amplifier as the output signals at different timings. The present technology can be applied to, for example, an ADC that performs AD conversion for an electrical signal output from a pixel.

摘要： The invention relates to high-resolution analog-digital converters using so-called folding differential amplifier structures composed of differential circuits (crossed differential pairs) and of loads (cascode transistors). The folding structure according to the invention comprises, in the case where it is desired to produce four curves folded at two periods in the useful range of voltages to be converted, four folding blocks (one per curve). The first comprises 7 differential circuits and eight loads, the end loads not being linked to the output of the block. The other blocks comprise 6 differential circuits and eight loads, the last load of each block not being linked to the output of this block. Gains are achieved in terms of bulk, consumption and operating speed, with respect to existing structures.

摘要： An array of binary weighted capacitors, an additional capacitor having a capacitance value equivalent to that of the least of the binary weighted capacitors, a voltage comparator, switches for interconnecting the capacitors with certain predetermined voltage levels and the comparator, and a sequencing circuit are included. One side of all of the capacitors is connected to one input terminal on the comparator and the other side has applied thereto the signal to be quantized. Switch sequencing combines divided portions of a reference voltage with the signal to be quantized for presentation to the input of the comparator which thereby provides a serial digit output connected to the sequencing circuit. In this fashion, a linear conversion between an analog and a digital signal is made by the sequencing circuit. A nonlinear converter between digital and analog signal presentation is also disclosed. Resolution of the coder/decoder is increased by providing a reference voltage generator capable of supplying stepped increments of the reference voltage to the capacitor array during the comparison process.

摘要： An A/D conversion device, for converting an analog input voltage Vin into a digital output signal encoded in N bits OUT(0:N-1), includes a first decoder (FNE) for generating the least significant bits OUT(0:K) of the output signal, and a second decoder (CRS) for generating signals which are representative of transitions to which the most significant bits OUT(i+1) of the output signal are to be submitted, for i=k to N-2.
