摘要: A method for converting a signal from analog-to-digital domain. Upon receipt of an i th triggering signal, where 1≦i≦N, the includes initiating at least partial AD operation. completion operation, may generating and transmitting +1 signal. The be adapted to initiate thereby creating asynchronous process. further repeating above operations until analog digital conversion. In some embodiments present invention, upon conversion, i=N operation is power-down function.
