In the conversion stage, the lower plate of the highest capacitor (i.e. the capacitor Cn) is connected to the reference positive voltage Vrefp, the lower plates of the other capacitors are connected to the reference negative voltage Vrefn, the voltage of the upper plate of the capacitor array 10 is-vin+vrefp/2, the first input end of the comparison unit 40 is the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 of the previous period, the voltage of the second input end of the comparison unit 40 is-vin+vrefp/2, the third input end of the comparison unit 40 is the second-order integrated voltage Vint2 of the previous period, -vin+vrefp/2+vint1 (N-1) +vint2 (N-1) > 0, the comparison unit 40 outputs 1 when the clock signal Φc is at high level, and the logic unit 50 switches the lower plate of the capacitor Cn to the reference negative voltage Vrefn, so that the first bit is 0; -vin+vrefp/2+vint1 (N-1) +vint2 (N-1).

The comparison unit 40 then performs comparison, and the logic unit 50 switches the connection mode of the capacitor Cn-1 according to the result output from the comparison unit 40. The comparison of the latter capacitor is the same as the comparison of the capacitor Cn and the capacitor Cn-1, and will not be described here again.
After all the capacitors in the capacitor array 10 are switched, one of the first integration module 21 and the second integration module 22 collects and integrates the residual voltage Vres of the current period, then the other of the first integration module 21 and the second integration module 22 stores the first-order integrated voltage Vint1, one of the third integration module 31 and the fourth integration module 32 integrates the first-order integrated voltage Vint1, and the other of the third integration module 31 and the fourth integration module 32 stores the second-order integrated voltage Vint 2.

After the capacitor array 10 completes the capacitor switching of the nth period, the second integrating module 22 collects and integrates the residual voltage Vres (N), and since the second integrating module 22 stores the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) of the nth-1 period, transmission of the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) is not needed, loss of signal transmission is reduced, the second integrating module 22 generates the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) of the nth period, the first integrating module 21 stores the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) of the nth period, the fourth integrating module 32 integrates the second-order integrated voltage Vint2 (N) of the nth period, and since the fourth integrating module 32 stores the second-order integrated voltage Vint2 (N) of the nth-1 period, transmission of the second-order integrated voltage Vint2 (N) is not needed, loss of signal transmission is reduced, the second-order integrated voltage of the nth period is generated, and the third integrating module 31 stores the second-order integrated voltage Vint2 (N) of the nth period. When the capacitor array 10 performs the capacitance switching in the n+1th period, the first integrating module 21 provides the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) in the N-th period to the comparing unit 40, the third integrating module 31 provides the second-order integrated voltage Vint2 (N) in the N-th period to the comparing unit 40, and the comparing unit 40 outputs the digital signal according to the plate voltage in the n+1th period, the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) in the N-th period, and the second-order integrated voltage Vint2 (N) in the N-th period.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2, the first integration module 21, the second integration module 22, the third integration module 31, and the fourth integration module 32 are capacitors, respectively.
Specifically, the analog-to-digital converter of the present embodiment adopts a passive integration mode, where the first integration module 21 is a first capacitor Ci1, the second integration module 22 is a second capacitor Ci2, the third integration module 31 is a third capacitor Ci3, and the fourth integration module 32 is a fourth capacitor Ci4.
After the capacitor array 10 completes the capacitor switching of the nth period, if the first capacitor Ci1 samples the residual voltage Vres (N) of the nth period on the capacitor array 10 and performs an integration operation with the historical residual voltage Vres (N-1).

It can be understood that the capacitance values of the first capacitor Ci1, the second capacitor Ci2, the third capacitor Ci3 and the fourth capacitor Ci4 are the same as the capacitance value of the capacitor array 10, and the capacitance value relationship between the first capacitor Ci1 and the capacitor array 10 is substituted into the formula (1), so that the formula (3) can be obtained:

the capacitance values of the first capacitor Ci1, the second capacitor Ci2, the third capacitor Ci3, and the fourth capacitor Ci4 are not limited to the capacitance value of the capacitor array 10, and may be other capacitance values, but the capacitance values of the first capacitor Ci1 and the second capacitor Ci2 need to be kept uniform, and the capacitance values of the third capacitor Ci3 and the fourth capacitor Ci4 need to be kept uniform.

Specifically, as can be seen from the formula (3), one of the first integration module 21 or the second integration module 22 will attenuate when the residual voltage Vres is integrated in the first order, so the first compensation module 23 is required to compensate the attenuation caused by the passive lossy integration back to obtain the first order integrated voltage Vint1, and the first order integrated voltage Vint1 is stored in the other of the first integration module 21 or the second integration module 22.
For example, if the first integration module 21 collects and integrates the nth period residual voltage Vres (N), the first compensation module 23 compensates the integrated voltage of the formula (3) to obtain the first order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) as shown in the formula (5), and stores the first order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) in the second integration module 22:

Specifically, after the first integration module 21 or the second integration module 22 integrates the residual voltage Vres, the voltage of the upper plate of the first integration module 21 or the second integration module 22 is the integrated voltage before compensation, and since the upper plate of the capacitor array 10 is connected to the first integration module 21 and the second integration module 22 respectively, the voltage of the upper plate of the capacitor array 10 becomes the integrated voltage before compensation, the second compensation module 33 compensates the voltage to generate the first-order integrated voltage Vint1, and stores the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 on the storage capacitor Ci5, so that the third integration module 31 and the fourth integration module 32 can collect and integrate the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 from the upper plate of the storage capacitor Ci 5. As can be seen from the formula (4), one of the third integration module 31 or the fourth integration module 32 will attenuate when performing the second-order integration on the first-order integration voltage Vint1, and therefore the third compensation module 34 is required to compensate the attenuation caused by the passive lossy integration back to obtain the second-order integration voltage Vint2, and store the second-order integration voltage Vint2 into the other of the third integration module 31 or the fourth integration module 32.
Further, in some embodiments, the capacitance value of the storage capacitor Ci5 is the capacitance value of the capacitor array 10.
Specifically, a storage capacitorCi5 is used to store the first-order integrated voltage Vint1 (N), since the capacitance of the storage capacitor Ci5 is the same as that of the capacitor array 10, the capacitor Ci5 can be used to storeWritten as->Thereby obtaining formula (2). Meanwhile, since the capacitance values of the first capacitor Ci1, the second capacitor Ci2, the third capacitor Ci3, the fourth capacitor Ci4, the storage capacitor Ci5 and the capacitor array 10 are the same, the attenuation of the passive lossy integration is the same, and the gains of the first compensation module 23, the second compensation module 33 and the third compensation module 34 are the same, so that the first compensation module 23, the second compensation module 33 and the third compensation module 34 can use the same amplifying circuit, thereby making the circuit structure of the SAR ADC simpler.
For example, if the first integration module 21 collects and integrates the nth period residual voltage Vres (N), the first compensation module 23 compensates the integrated voltage of the formula (4) to obtain the first order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) as shown in the formula (7), and stores the first order integrated voltage Vint1 (N) in the second integration module 22:
