Abstract

One embodiment relates to an apparatus configured to cancel charge injected on a node of a differential pair of nodes. A dummy circuit element can inject charge on an inverted node to cancel charge injected on a non-inverted node by a switch when the switch is switched off. In addition, another dummy circuit element can inject charge on the non-inverted node to cancel charge injected on the inverted node by another switch when the other switch is switched off. These dummy circuits elements can be cross-coupled.
