CIRCUIT FUNCTION AND BENEFITS
only 1 pC compared to the next best solutions on the market,
which have 10 pC to 20 pC of charge injection. The ADG1211
also has low capacitance and leakage current, making it an ideal
choice for this circuit.
This circuit is a sample-and-hold amplifier (SHA) function,
which is basic to the data acquisition and analog-to-digital
conversion process. In some programmable logic controller
(PLC) output modules, a sample-and-hold in each channel
stores the output samples from a single high performance DAC.
The sample-and-holds are often implemented using analog
switches or multiplexers and buffers. The circuit shown in
Figure 1 provides a precise, fast sample-and-hold circuit capable
of processing industrial-level signals of up to ±10 V.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This is a precise, fast sample-and-hold circuit. During the
sample mode, SW2 is closed, and the output, VOUT, follows the
input signal, VIN. In the hold mode, SW2 is opened, and the
signal is held by the hold capacitor, CH.
Due to switch and capacitor leakage current, the voltage on the
hold capacitor decays (droops) with time. The ADG1211
minimizes this droop due to its low leakage specifications. The
ADG1211 has 20 pA leakage typically at 25°C and 100 pA
maximum. The droop rate is further minimized by the use of a
polystyrene hold capacitor.
Switches and multiplexers are useful in data acquisition
applications where instantaneous analog values must be
captured. The input signal from the analog switch charges a
hold capacitor that is connected to the input of an op amp.
Ideally, the closed switch conveys nothing but the input signal
to the capacitor. However, the switch also delivers a packet of
charge when it switches, called charge injection. The ADG1211
quad SPST switch has excellent charge injection performance of
A second switch, SW1, which operates in parallel with SW2, is
included in this circuit to reduce pedestal error. Since both

“Circuits from the Lab” from Analog Devices have been designed and built by Analog Devices
engineers. Standard engineering practices have been employed in the design and construction of
each circuit, and their function and performance have been tested and verified in a lab environment
at room temperature. However, you are solely responsible for testing the circuit and determining its
suitability and applicability for your use and application. Accordingly, in no event shall Analog
Devices be liable for direct, indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages due to
any cause whatsoever connected to the use of any“Circuit from the Lab”. (Continued on last page)

Circuit Note
switches are at the same potential, they have similar transients,
which act as a common-mode signal to the op amp, thereby
minimizing charge injection effects. Pedestal error is also
reduced by the compensation network RC and CC. This compensation network also reduces the hold-time glitch, while
optimizing the acquisition time.
The circuit in Figure 1 gives the following results: droop rate of
2 mV/ms, pedestal error of less than 0.5 mV, and acquisition
time of 3 ms.
The circuit must be constructed on a multilayer PC board with
a large area ground plane. Proper layout, grounding, and
decoupling techniques must be used to achieve optimum
performance (see Tutorial MT-031 and Tutorial MT-101).
