Zusammenfassung: | A passive amplifier is provided that includes an input sampling switch, a sampling capacitance, and metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitor devices. An input signal may be sampled onto the sampling capacitance by turning on the input sampling switch while the metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitors are activated. After the sampling phase, the metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitors are deactivated to provide a voltage gain. The voltage gain can be conditionally applied depending on the signal level of the sampled input. |
