An A/D converter includes a low-bit resolution A/D which converts an input signal into a digital value of 4 bits or less, and a low-pass digital filter which suppresses a high-frequency-band component in an output from the low-bit resolution A/D, and extracts phase information contained in the input signal as amplitude information. A digital PLL circuit and information recording apparatus are also disclosed.
