Abstract:
In some embodiments, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) comprises a loop filter configured to produce an error signal based on a difference between an analog input signal and a feedback signal. The ADC also comprises a main comparator set comprising one or more main comparators, the main comparator set configured to digitize the error signal and further configured to drive a main digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The ADC further comprises an auxiliary comparator set comprising a plurality of auxiliary comparators, the auxiliary comparator set configured to digitize the error signal when the ADC is in a runaway state and further configured to drive an auxiliary DAC to bring the error signal into a predetermined range.

Claim (Index 12):
