Abstract

This analog-digital conversion device comprises switching means (CS) having two close and centered triggering thresholds; a NOR logic gate (PL) which, when the conversion device is not being used, receives a standby command signal and delivers a zero digital output signal (NOUT) imposed on the input (NIN) of the switching means (CS); preamplification means (PS); and amplification means (AS) receiving a standby command signal and delivering either the digital output signal (NOUT), in the absence of a standby command, or a zero-value signal in the event of a standby command.
