Abstract
A follow-hold switch circuit comprising: a follower; a sampling sub-circuit for voltage sampling; a bootstrap-control sub-circuit, which provides a bootstrap voltage to the sampling sub-circuit when the circuit is in a following state; a sampling-switch-control sub-circuit, which provides a common-mode voltage to a bootstrap capacitor in the bootstrap-control sub-circuit when the circuit is in a holding state; the follower is connected to an output of the sampling sub-circuit; the sampling sub-circuit is connected to the bootstrap-control sub-circuit and the sampling-switch-control sub-circuit respectively through a sampling switch; the present disclosure can effectively improve the linearity of sampling switches.
