Abstract
An offset cancellation circuit can include an amplifier having a negative input, a positive input, and a single-ended output, wherein the positive input is configured to receive a reference voltage. The circuit also can include a capacitor having a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal can be coupled to the negative input of the amplifier. The capacitor can be configured to sample the offset voltage of the amplifier. The second terminal of the capacitor can be selectively coupled to the output of the amplifier.
