Acircuit is the key element in any modern wideband data acquisition system. Applications like a cableor a broad variety of different radio standards require high processing speeds with high resolution. Thetrack-and-hold (T&H) circuit is a fundamental block for analogallows most dynamic errors of A/D converters to be reduced, especially those showing up when usinghigh frequency input signals. Having a wideband and precise acquisition systemtoday¡¯s trend towards multi-standard flexible radios, with as much signal processing as possible indigital domain. This work investigates effect of various design schemes and circuit topology for trackand-hold circuit to achieve acceptable linearly, high slew rate, low power consumption and low noise %K Track and Hold Circuit %K Low Power Consumption %K Slew Rate %K Analog to Digital Converter %U http://airccse.org/journal/vlsi/papers/2111vlsics05.pdf
