An analog to digital converter comprising at least two analog to digital conversion engines and a controller for controlling the operation of the analog to digital conversion engines such that during a first phase of an analog to digital conversion process the engines collaborate such that a plurality of bits can be determined during a single trial step; and during a second phase of the analog to digital conversion the conversion engines work independently; and the controller receives the outputs of at least one of the conversion engines and processes them to provide an output word.
