Abstract

An apparatus for converting an analog signal to a digital signal comprising a first analog to digital converter for generating a first digital value from an analog value. A second analog to digital converter for generating a second digital value from the analog value. Logic for determining a correction factor for the second digital value based on a difference between the first digital value and the second digital value, wherein the logic updates the correction factor.
