This is @ national stage fling under section 371. of PCT/ED2014(075267 filed Nov. 21, 2014, which claims the benefit of French Application No, 1362001, filed on Dec, 4, 2013, which application is hereby incorporated herein by reference, ‘TECHNICAL FIELD Embodiments ofthe invention are related to a method and device for compensating bandwiddh mismatches of time imetleaved analog-to-digital converters. BACKGROUND Certain present-day applications require analog-to-digital ‘converters having a high sampling frequency and a high resolution. Among these applications are eable TV trans- ‘missions, optical communications and satellite communi tions a which one oF more modulated signals are transmit- ted simultancously on a wide frequency band (lor example several GHz wide) ‘Moreover, the use of increasingly complex modulations requires a digitizing ofthe signals using a large number of bits. Single-converter architectures have difcuty in meeting the required performance levels at an acceptable cost ia terms of consumption and of space requirement. ‘Moreover, stuctires having several time-iterieaved ana Jog-o digital converters (TADCs: Time-Interleaved Analog to Digital Converters) are being imposed in order to moot this requirement. In such a time-interleaved structure, the time-interleaved analog-to-digital converters respectively ‘cary out time-shifted analog-to-
