Abstract

A nested chopper circuit includes a first chopper section, which is coupled to input terminals and is controlled by a pair of non-overlapping clocks, and a second chopper section, which is coupled to the first chopper section and is controlled by a pair of chopper clocks. The pair of non-overlapping clocks is a multiple of the pair of chopper clocks, and the non-overlapping clocks are configured to invert on a period continuously. When the pair of chopper clocks (&phgr; and &phgr; ) controls switches S , S , S , and S of the second section, these switches follow the following logic when operated in conjunction with the pair of non-overlapping clocks (&phgr;A and &phgr;B): switches S & S : &phgr;A·&phgr; +&phgr;B·&phgr; ; and switches S & S : &phgr;A·&phgr; +&phgr;B·&phgr; . A method for chopping an analog input signal for sampling also is described.
