发明名称 A/D CONVERTING CIRCUIT, SOLID-STATE IMAGE SENSING DEVICE AND CAMERA SYSTEM
摘要 <p>There are provided an A/D conversion circuit in which a counter is made to be capable of performing counting at both edges of a clock, up/down count values can be switched while the up/down count values are held, and the duty of the counting operation is difficult to be distorted even with the both-edge counting, a solid-state image sensor, and a camera system. An ADC 15A is configured as an integrating-type A/D conversion circuit using a comparator 151 and a counter 152. The counter 152 has a function of switching a count mode from an up count to a down count and from a down count to an up count while a value is held, a function of performing counting at both rising and falling edges of an input clock CK at a frequency two times as high as that of the input clock, and a function of latching the input clock CK in accordance with an output signal of the comparator 151 and setting non-inverted or inverted data of the latched data to be data of an LSB.</p>
