Abstract
Since a switched-capacitor sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) has a feedback loop outside its op-amp, an op-amp with positive feedback technique (PFT) can be adopted to enhance the DC-gain of the op-amp. This paper proposes a positive feedback amplifier with dramatically increased DC-gain of 127-dB and reports that a SHA adopting proposed amplifier is stable by feedback operation. Measurement results demonstrated stable operation with spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) of 70- dB.
