Abstract

A semiconductor integrated circuit device having A/D converters for converting, by means of digital correction processing, analog input signals into digital signals is reduced in area. The semiconductor integrated circuit device has a first A/D converter and a second A/D converter. In a first mode, a first test signal is inputted to both the first and second A/D converters, and a first correction coefficient for the first A/D converter and a second correction coefficient for the second A/D converter are calculated. In a second mode, the first A/D converter converts a first analog signal into a first digital signal by subjecting the first analog signal to a first digital correction processing and the second A/D converter converts a second analog signal into a second digital signal by subjecting the second analog signal to a second digital correction processing.
