    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide circuitry for reducing input distortion at a buffer due to large signal swings. The circuitry includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a first buffer, a low pass filter, and a second buffer. The ADC is configured to convert an analog input to a digital output. The first buffer is coupled to an input node of the ADC and the low pass filter is coupled to an output of a driving circuit and an input to the first buffer. The second buffer placed in proximity to the first buffer. An input of the second buffer is connected to an output of the driving circuit and an output of the second buffer is connected to a feedback component of the driving circuit.

    Abstract: In accordance with the teachings described herein, systems and methods are provided for a time-interleaved pipeline analog to digital converter. An example pipeline analog to digital converter may include passive sampling circuits and a multiplying digital to analog converter circuit. A first passive sampling circuit includes an input terminal coupled to an analog input signal, and outputs a first sample voltage that is responsive to the analog input signal. A second passive sampling circuit includes an input terminal coupled to the analog input signal, and outputs a second sample voltage that is responsive to the analog input signal. The first and second passive sampling circuits are clocked such that the first sample voltage and the second sample voltage are time-interleaved. A multiplying analog to digital converter (MDAC) circuit receives the time-interleaved first and second sample voltages from the first and second passive sampling circuits and processes the time-interleaved first and second sample voltages to generate a residue output voltage.
