Abstract

A time-interleaved sampling system includes an input signal having a time-varying analog value and a plurality of samplers. Each sampler is operable in a hold mode and a track mode. In the track mode, the samplers track the analog value of the input signal. In the hold mode, each sampler holds a respective analog value of the input signal that a respective sampler tracked immediately before entering the hold mode. The samplers enter the track mode in a predetermined sequence. After a last sampler in the predetermined sequence enters the track mode, the predetermined sequence is repeated in a loop. At random intervals, a skipped sampler in the predetermined sequence is bypassed from entering the track mode.
