    Abstract: The disclosure provides an amplifier. The amplifier includes a first transistor that receives a first input and generates a first load current. A first output node is coupled to a power supply through a first load resistor. The first load resistor receives the first load current. A first capacitor network is coupled to the first output node and draws a first capacitive current from the first output node. A first current buffer is coupled between the first output node and the first transistor. A current through the first current buffer is a summation of the first load current and the first capacitive current.

    Abstract: A digital step attenuator (DSA) includes a switch control circuit which receives the attenuated signal output by the DSA from a buffer and generates a tracked control signal for switches within the DSA. Some switch control circuits include a capacitor coupled to receive the buffered signal, a supply voltage, and a switch control logic sub-circuit for each switch. Each switch control logic sub-circuit receives a control signal, for either the gate or the bulk terminal of the switch, and generates the tracked control signal. In other embodiments, switch control circuits include a complementary MOSFET switching device coupled to receive a control signal, and a capacitor coupled to receive the buffered signal, both of which are connected to an output terminal for the tracked control signal. In those embodiments, the DSA includes a switch control circuit for each switch connected to the DSA output.

    Abstract: Pipelined analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) include a flash ADC that reduces noise tones in power supply current drawn by the flash ADC. A pipelined analog-to-digital converter (ADC) includes a flash ADC and error correction circuitry coupled to the flash ADC. The flash ADC includes a plurality of latched comparators and a plurality of driver circuits. Each of the latched comparators includes an inverting output and a non-inverting output. Each of the driver circuits is coupled to one of the latched comparators, and includes an input terminal and an output terminal. In a first subset of the driver circuits the input terminal is coupled to the inverting output of one of the latched comparators. In a second subset of the driver circuits the input terminal is coupled to the non-inverting output of one of the latched comparators.

    Abstract: The disclosure provides an RF receiver. The RF receiver includes an input driver. The input driver receives a coarse signal, and generates an input signal. A digital step attenuator (DSA) is coupled to the input driver and receives the input signal. An analog to digital converter (ADC) is coupled to the DSA. The DSA includes a sampling capacitor coupled to the ADC. The DSA also includes a time dependent resistor coupled to a source voltage and to the sampling capacitor.
