  • Abstract
    A class AB Sample and Hold circuit is presented. Class AB operation allows achieving high slew rate with very low static power requirements. Measurement results of a test chip prototype in a 0.5-μm CMOS process demonstrate a settling time of 1.9 μs using a large load capacitance of 50 pF with only 81 μW of static power consumption. Silicon area is 0.075 mm2.
