The difference between the output current of a voltage-current converter circuit and the output current of a local D/A converter circuit 2, whose output current is controlled by a feedback signal, is integrated by an analog circuit of which one end is connected to a DC potential point, and the voltage obtained by the integration thereof is quantized by a quantizing circuit. The result is integrated by a digital integrating circuit and is fed to a feedback correcting circuit 6 and, further, the result of A/D conversion is output. The feedback correcting circuit outputs a temporary feedback signal while the digital integration is being operated based on the output of the quantizing circuit. After the digital integrating operation completes the digital integration operation, a corrected feedback signal is generated instead of the temporary feedback signal. The signals inputted into the analog circuit 3 are continuously sampled even while the digital integration operation is being carried out.
