Abstract: Low voltage transistors are used in high voltage environment. The low voltage transistors may be used in the path of processing of a signal to increase the throughput performance. By using high voltage supply associated with the high voltage environment, a higher SNR may be attained. Various techniques are implemented to ensure that the low voltage transistors are not damaged by prolonged exposure to high voltages.

Abstract: A switch provided between a first terminal and a second terminal with a varying cross terminal voltage. The switch contains two transistors, with the source terminal of the first transistor being coupled to the first terminal and a drain terminal of the second transistor being coupled to the second terminal. The gate terminal of the first transistor is coupled to the first terminal, the gate terminal of the second transistor is coupled to the second terminal, and the drain terminal of the first transistor is coupled to the source terminal of the second transistor. Due to such a topology, the cross-terminal voltage across the first and second terminals can be substantially higher than the voltage of the control signal indicating whether the switch is to be in on or off state.

Abstract: A bandwidth limited sampling circuit of high linearity may be implemented by using a first circuit portion to limit the bandwidth of the input signals, and using a second circuit portion to sample the bandwidth limited input signal. The first circuit portion and the second circuit portion may be implemented using separate components. In an alternative embodiment, bandwidth limiting is implemented by taking a difference of a sampled input signal from a sampled high frequency components of the input signal.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a test set-up (20) and method of testing a correlated double sampling circuit (CDS) (24) by using a sinusoidal test signal (22) for measuring linearity. The present invention generates a sinusoidal signal with two accurate and known levels at two different time points, as an input to the CDS. The cosinusoidal output of the CDS is then processed using an ADC (60) and processor (62) to check the functionality and linearity of the CDS circuit under test.

Abstract: A comparator comparing a differential input signal (represented by INM and INP single ended signals) with a differential reference signal (REFP and REFM) to generate a comparison result. The result may be amplified by a desired high amplification factor while consuming minimal electrical power. The comparator may contain two regenerative latches, with each latch containing two terminals. The INM, INP, REFP, and REFM are provided on the four terminals via respective switches. The first and second terminals of the first regenerative latch may respectively be connected to the first and second terminals of the second regenerative latch, with a switch in the path of each connection. The switches may be operated and the regenerative latches may be enabled for a short duration, to generate an amplified comparison result.
