Abstract

A successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter capable of accelerating reset comprises: a sampling circuit generating at least one output signal(s) according to at least one input signal(s); a comparator generating at least one comparator output signal(s) according to the at least one output signal(s) and a reset signal; a control circuit controlling the operation of the sampling circuit according to the at least one comparator output signal(s) or the equivalent thereof, and generating the reset signal; a first reset wire circuit outputting the reset signal to the comparator so that a first circuit of the comparator is reset when the value of the reset signal is a first value; and a second reset wire circuit outputting the reset signal to the comparator so that a second circuit of the comparator is synchronously reset when the value of the reset signal is the first value.
