Abstract :
A bootstrapped switch, where the switch transistor gate as well as the bulk node track the input signal, is presented. The circuit utilising a PMOS switch device does not need a triple-well process and can thus be implemented in a standard CMOS technology. Simulations show 20 dB improved second harmonic compared to a conventional bootstrapped switch.
