Abstract: In examples of a chopper operational amplifier, a current control circuit comprises a pair of voltage sources, each of which may be varied to generate a voltage signal of a particular value, and multiple inverters, each of which is configured to receive either a clock signal or its complement signal and one of the voltage signals. Based on these inputs, each inverter generates a control signal that is delivered to a corresponding switch in the input stage of the chopper operational amplifier to control the gate voltage of that switch. Based on the difference between the values of the voltage signals, the current control circuit operates to reduce the amplitudes of base currents induced by charge injection at the input terminals of the chopper operational amplifier.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system that comprises an operational amplifier with adjustable operational parameters and a trimming module. The trimming module can adjust the operational parameters of the op-amp based on a memory value to compensate for an offset voltage of the op-amp. The trimming module can comprise successive approximation register (SAR) logic that controls the memory value. The SAR logic can be configured to detect a given memory value that causes an output voltage of the op-amp to be within a predetermined voltage interval when applying a predetermined common mode voltage to inverting and non-inverting inputs of the op-amp.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system comprising a plurality of operational amplifiers, each operational amplifier having individually adjustable operational parameters, and a trimming circuit. The trimming circuit includes successive approximation register (SAR) logic that determines associated memory values. The trimming circuit changes the adjustable operational parameters of each operation amplifier based on the associated memory values.

Abstract: An apparatus has four transistors. The first and third transistors each have a gate coupled to a first input terminal and second input terminal respectively, a source coupled to a current source and to a first terminal of a bias voltage source, and a substrate coupled to a second terminal of the bias voltage source. The second and fourth transistors each have a gate coupled to the first input terminal and the second input terminal respectively, a source coupled to the drain of the first and third transistors respectively, a drain coupled to a lower voltage supply and a substrate coupled to its source. The bias voltage source increases the threshold voltages of the first and third transistors above the second and fourth transistors, respectively. This ensures that the first and third transistors turn on after the second and fourth transistors, respectively.

Abstract: Differential input circuits employ protection transistors and feedback paths to limit the differential voltage applied to input transistors. In an example arrangement, a differential input voltage is applied to terminals of the protection transistors, and current paths couple the respective protection transistors to control terminals of the input transistors, respectively. A control terminal drive voltage source is coupled to the control terminals of the input protection transistors to control the drive voltage applied to those terminals. Feedback paths, one for each of the input transistors, control voltages applied to the control terminals of the input transistors, maintaining the input differential voltage at a relatively low level and defined by the product of a specified current value and a specified resistance value.
