Abstract

L'invention porte sur un convertisseur analogique-numérique à approximations successives (CAN-AS) (100) et son procédé d'étalonnage. Le CAN-AS (100) comprend un circuit de mesure de capacité (200) qui effectue une mesure de capacité à base de fréquence pour étalonner le CAN-AS (100). Le circuit de mesure de capacité (200) est connecté à un convertisseur numérique-analogique (CNA) du CAN-AS (100) une fois seulement, et ensuite la valeur de capacité à base de fréquence de condensateurs est utilisée de façon répétée dans des cycles de conversion. Ainsi, le circuit de mesure de capacité (200) améliore la fréquence de conversion de convertisseurs analogique-numérique à approximations successives classiques et élimine la nécessité d'un CNA de grande précision requis dans un CAN-AS classique.
