Analog-digital converter

摘要

An A/D converter used with an A/D conversion system in which each of input analog signals applied thereto is amplified at a gain selected depending or the level of said each signal and subjected to A/D conversion. The A/D converter is arranged to select a desired one of predetermined gain select modes concerned with the selection of gain of the amplifier. Further, the A/D converter produces a reference analog signal of a level corresponding to the selected gain select mode and compares the input analog signal with the reference analog signal, thereby determining whether or not the gain of the amplifier is to be changed.
