  • Publication number: 20250219646
    Abstract: An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) circuit includes an ADC module configured to convert an analog input signal into an original digital output signal, an error detection module configured to detect overflow of the original digital output signal due to the analog input signal being out of an input dynamic range of the ADC module and determine a current state of the original digital output signal as a normal state or an error state, and a correction module configured to, in response to the current state of the original digital output signal being the normal state, output a corrected digital output signal based on the original digital output signal and, in response to the current state of the original digital output signal being the error state, output the corrected digital output signal based on a replacement output signal for replacing the original digital output signal.
