Patent abstract
The exemplary embodiments relate to an asynchronously clocked successive approximation register analog-to-digital converter (SAR ADC) configured to provide a digital approximation of a sampled input signal as a result of an asynchronous successive approximation operation. The converter includes a regulation circuit configured to determine whether the asynchronous successive approximation operation was performed within a predefined conversion time and to regulate the SAR ADC such that the conversion time of the asynchronous operation is shifted towards the predefined conversion time. The embodiments further relate to a corresponding method and a corresponding design structure.
