Abstract
A capacitive successive approximation analog-to-digital converter is provided, where the capacitive successive approximation analog-to-digital converter includes a first capacitor array including N first capacitors; a second capacitor array including N second capacitors; a voltage generation circuit configured to generate a common mode voltage, a reference voltage, a first voltage and a second voltage; a first switch, a second switch, N third switches and N fourth switches; a comparator including a first input end, a second input end and an output end, where upper plates of the N first capacitors are connected to the first input end and upper plates of the N second capacitors are connected to the second input end; and a successive approximation logic controller connected to the output end of the comparator. The capacitive successive approximation analog-to-digital converter in the above technical solution can use 2N capacitors to implement outputting an N-bit binary code.
