Systems and methods for a variable-gain differentiator in series with at least two non-inverting amplifiers. The variable-gain differentiator is connected to a voltage-controlled source at its non-inverting input and to its output at its inverting input. The output is connected to the non-inverting input of the first non-inverting amplifier. The output of the first non-inverting amplifier is connected to the input of the second non-inverting amplifier. The output of the second non-inverting amplifier is connected to a series of three integrators. Each integrator is connected to its output by a feedback path.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to a sampling network of a switched-capacitor integrator and a clocking scheme associated therewith, which may be used in an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), for example. The integrator generally includes five sets of switches which allow for a decreased switching frequency (e.g., halved) at an input stage of the integrator compared to conventional double sampling networks. As a result, the input impedance of the integrator may be increased (e.g., doubled), resulting in lower power consumption and reduced strain on driving circuitry.
