Abstract

According to one embodiment, an analog-to-digital converter includes a first digital-to-analog converter, a comparator configured to digitally output based on a first clock signal, a clock generator configured to generate the first clock signal from an input clock signal, and a controller configured to control the first digital-to-analog converter. The clock generator sets a cycle of the first clock signal to a first cycle if the input clock signal is at a first logic level, and sets the cycle of the first clock signal to a second cycle shorter than the first cycle if the input clock signal is at a second logic level.
