The present invention provides a ΔΣ AD converter and a sensor device having a small circuit scale and high conversion accuracy. A ΔΣ AD converter includes a ΔΣ AD modulator, an accumulator, a counter, an adjustment value storage part, a first adder, a cumulative value latch part, and a control circuit. The control circuit outputs to the adjustment value storage part a signal designating a temperature range according to the adjustment cumulative value received from the first adder in a case where the count value received from the counter reaches a predetermined value. The adjustment value storage part outputs the adjustment value of the offset value and the adjustment value of the count value according to the signal to the first adder and the counter. The control circuit outputs the latch signal to the cumulative value latch part in response to completion of counting by the counter.
A ΔΣ AD converter which converts an input analog signal into a digital signal, the ΔΣ AD converter comprising:
