    摘要: Automatically calibrating operational amplifier (op-amp) systems for mitigating effects of offset voltages are disclosed. In one aspect, an automatically calibrating op-amp system is provided that employs an analog calibration signal corresponding to a calibration mode to compensate an output voltage signal of an op-amp corresponding to an amplify mode. An automatic calibration circuit is included that employs a successive approximation register (SAR) controller configured to successively generate digital values based on the output voltage signal of the op-amp in response to a mode signal indicating the calibration mode. The automatic calibration circuit includes a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) configured to convert each successive digital value into the analog calibration signal in response to the mode signal indicating the calibration mode. The analog calibration signal is provided to an auxiliary differential input of the op-amp to compensate for the composite offset voltage in the amplify mode.

    摘要: Phase-dependent operational amplifiers ("op-amps") employing phase-based frequency compensation, and related systems and methods are disclosed. A phase-dependent op-amp is provided configured to provide output voltage based on inputs switched by clock signal. The op-amp employs a frequency compensation system having multiple frequency compensation circuits. The frequency compensation circuit corresponding to the clock phase is selected by selection circuit and coupled to the voltage output node. The op-amp charges each frequency compensation circuit during the clock phase to store voltage approximately equal to output voltage. When transitioning to a clock phase, output voltage of op-amp does not have to charge frequency compensation circuit. Voltage of frequency compensation circuit stored during clock phase is approximately equal to output voltage of op-amp for clock phase. The op-amp need only provide a small amount of voltage to the frequency compensation circuit to slew it to its designed voltage during instances of its clock phase.
