    Abstract: Techniques for adaptively generating bias current for a switched-capacitor circuit are described. The switched-capacitor circuit charges and discharges at least one switching capacitor at a sampling rate and may be a ΣΔ ADC that digitizes an analog signal at the sampling rate and provides digital samples. The switched-capacitor circuit may support multiple modes associated with different sampling rates. A bias circuit generates a bias current for the switched-capacitor circuit to be proportional to the sampling rate for a selected mode, to provide a bandwidth proportional to the sampling rate for an operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) within the switched-capacitor circuit, and to track changes in the switching capacitor(s) due to variations in integrated circuit (IC) process and temperature. The settling time of the switched-capacitor circuit may track with the multiple modes and across IC process and temperature variations.

    Abstract: A low bandwidth signal path is added to copy internal node DC signal to output node. Therefore, for a DC or low frequency signal, the output signal is controlled by this loop. On the other hand, a high frequency signal is not affected because of the low-bandwidth of added loop. Thus, both DC and AC coupling modes are realized for components such as low-voltage video drivers.
