Abstract:
To reduce power consumption of an analog-to-digital converter in which a comparator is provided. An analog-to-digital converter includes a comparator and a mode control unit. The comparator is configured to generate a comparison result by comparing an analog signal to a threshold indicating a boundary of a predetermined range in a determination mode and convert the analog signal into a digital signal in a conversion mode. The mode control unit is configured to transition the determination mode to the conversion mode in a case in which the comparison result indicating that the analog signal is not within the predetermined range is generated.
