Abstract

An improved switched capacitor circuit configuration is disclosed which exhibits improved low voltage supply operation and improved charge injection cancellation performance. In the preferred embodiment of a switched capacitor integrator, the improvement is realized by the particular configuration of a switched tub switch on the input, single N-channel devices at the summing junction, skewing the analog ground V.sub.AG downward, and delaying the clock signals to turn off the switches at the summing junction before the charge injection of the switched tub switch is realized.
