A phase-shifted sampling circuit is described. The phase-shifted sampling circuit includes a primary sampler circuit, an ADC circuit, and an equalization circuit. The primary sampler circuit includes an analog signal input, a first signal path, and a second signal path. The equalization circuit includes a primary sampler equalizer sub-circuit. The primary sampler equalizer sub-circuit is configured to compensate a mismatch between a transfer function associated with the first signal path and a transfer function associated with the second signal path. Further, a method of determining filter coefficients of an equalization circuit of a phase-shifted sampling circuit is described.

Phase-shifted sampling module and method for determining filter coefficients

A phase-shifted sampling module for sampling a signal is described. The phase-shifted sampling module includes a primary sampler module, an ADC module, and an equalization module. The primary sampler module includes an analog signal input, a first signal path, and a second signal path. The equalization module includes a primary sampler equalizer sub-module. The primary sampler equalizer sub-module is configured to compensate low-frequency mismatches between the first signal path and the second signal path. Further, a method for determining filter coefficients of an equalization module of a phase-shifted sampling module is described.
