In an A/D converter provided with an A/D converter circuit 101 for operationally amplifying an input signal and outputting an amplified signal, the A/D converter circuit 101 includes an initial value setting circuit 4a in addition to an amplifier 1a, a sub-A/D converter 2a, a sub-D/A converter 3a and capacitors C11 and C12. To ensure that the initial value of the output voltage of the amplifier 1a is a given voltage value close to the target value of operational amplification at the start of the operational amplification by the amplifier 1a, the initial value setting circuit 4a applies a given bias value equal to the given voltage value close to the target value to a next-stage capacitor C13 to be connected to the output side of the amplifier 1a. Such an A/D converter circuit 101 that can perform speedy convergence to the target value of operational amplification is used at each stage of a pipeline A/D converter.
