Abstract :
A technique of increasing the resolution of the counter ramp ADC (analog-to-digital converter) and successive approximation ADC without affecting their speed of operation is proposed. An n-bit simultaneous ADC is used with another m-bit successive approximation ADC or counter-type ADC to realize an (m+n )-bit ADC having the same speed of operation as an m-bit ADC
