Abstract
An AD conversion circuit includes a reference signal generation unit, which generates a reference signal, a comparison unit, which ends a comparison process at a timing at which the reference signal has satisfied a predetermined condition with respect to the analog signal, a first path in which a signal is transferred through each of n delay units, a clock signal generation unit, which outputs a lower-order phase signal, a latch unit, which latches the lower-order phase signal, a higher-order count unit including a first counter circuit, which acquires a higher-order count value by performing a count operation using a signal output from any one of the delay units, a calculation unit, which generates a lower-order count signal, and a lower-order count unit, which acquires a lower-order count value by performing the count operation using the lower-order count signal.
