(57) The invention relates to an interpolative analog/digital converter for band-pass signals in which the amplitudes of the scanning values are quantized in 2 consecutive stages. The first stage contains the actual analog/digital interface and the second stage is purely digital. The amplitudes of the scanning values are not quantized, as in other processes, using finely quantizing elements at the analog/digital interface, but by overscanning, shaping of the quantization noise spectrum and digital interpolation. As a result, very coarsely resolving elements (with only 2 quantization stages in the extreme case) can be used at the actual analog/digital interface.
