Zusammenfassung: | An analog sampling network includes a sampling capacitor being coupled between a bottom plate sampling switch and a top plate sampling switch implemented as NMOS transistors. The top plate sampling switch has source/drain terminals coupled respectively to the sampling capacitor and a first reference voltage. The analog sampling network includes a top plate boosting circuit providing a boosted gate voltage to a gate terminal of the top plate sampling switch during a sampling phase, the boosted gate voltage being the sum of a first voltage and a second voltage. The first voltage is approximately equal to the first reference voltage and tracks process, temperature, power supply voltage and biasing condition variations. The second voltage is a maximum operating voltage from the gate to drain/source terminal for a fabrication process used to fabricate the second MOS transistor. |
