Abstract:
A conditional correlated multiple sampling (CCMS) single slope (SS) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is provided. The CCMS SS ADC includes a comparator, arranged to compare an analog signal with a ramp signal and generate a comparison result; and a CCMS control circuit, arranged to determine a swing of the ramp signal according to a magnitude of the analog signal. An image sensor system using the CCMS SS ADC and a method of CCMS SS analog-to-digital conversion are also disclosed.

Claim (Index 4):
The ADC of  claim 3 , wherein when the control circuit selects the first ramp signal to act as the ramp signal, the comparator compares the analog signal with the ramp signal for once, and when the control circuit selects the second ramp signal to act as the ramp signal, the comparator compares the analog signal with the ramp signal repeatedly for more than once.
