An accurate CMOS sample-and-hold circuit

Abstract

An accurate sample-and-hold (S/H) circuit implemented with a 2- mu m double-poly CMOS process is described. Competitive performance in terms of output swing, linearity, and clock feedthrough compensation was obtained using a new circuit topology. The sample and hold operates up to 1 MHz of sampling frequency with less than -60 dB of total harmonic distortion. The accuracy of the held step is better than 0.2 mV. The circuit dissipates 4 mW with a 5-V power supply. >
