Method for reducing deleterious effects of electrical noise in an analog-to-digital converter wherein both the analog and digital circuitry of the A/D converter are embodied in the same integrated circuit. The method includes sampling an analog input voltage with a first clock signal, generating a second clock signal that is delayed with respect to the first clock signal, and using the second clock signal as a clock for the digital circuitry. In accordance with another aspect of the invention, the method for reducing effects of noise in an A/D converter wherein such noise is generated by a digital decimation filter includes synchronously pipelining the arithmetic operations of the digital decimation filter.
