Abstract

See full text

Techniques and apparatus for output common-mode control of dynamic amplifiers, as well as analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and other circuits implemented with such dynamic amplifiers. One example amplifier circuit includes a dynamic amplifier and a current source. The dynamic amplifier generally includes differential inputs, differential outputs, transconductance elements coupled to the differential inputs, a first set of capacitive elements coupled to the differential outputs, and a control input for controlling a time length of amplification for the dynamic amplifier. The current source is configured to generate an output current such that portions of the output current are selectively applied to the differential outputs of the dynamic amplifier during at least a portion of the time length of amplification.
