Abstract
A circuit includes a first amplifier having first and second inputs and first and second output, first and second input capacitors, a first feedback capacitor selectively coupled between the first input and the first output, and a second feedback capacitor selectively coupled between the second input and the second output. During a second phase of operation, the first and second feedback capacitors are decoupled from the output and the first amplifier is configured to sample an input common mode voltage, an output common mode voltage, and an input offset voltage of the first amplifier on the first and second input capacitors. During a first phase of operation, the first feedback capacitor is coupled between the input and the output, the second feedback capacitor is coupled between the input and the output, and the first amplifier is configured to amplify a differential input signal provided across the first and second inputs.
