Abstract
An innovative analog circuit design using digital components is disclosed. Embodiments of the present invention includes, but not limited to analog amplifiers and comparators. An amplifier of an embodiment of the present invention includes an inverter, a plurality of switches, offset capacitor and flying capacitor. The one terminal of the offset capacitor is connected to the input of the inverter. During setup phase of clock signals, the switches are configured to connect input and output of the inverter and to connect the flying capacitor to input terminals of the amplifier, respectively, for storing a differential input voltage. Then, during the enable phase of the clock signals, the switches are configured to connect the first terminal of the second capacitor and the first terminal of the first capacitor, and to connect the second terminal of the second capacitor to the output of the inverter.
