A dynamic error introduced by track-and-hold circuits can be reduced by using an input signal derivative to perform linear extrapolation during the hold period, allowing the output of the track-and-hold circuit to provide improved performance in reconstructing an undistorted input waveform, or to perform other applications such as demultiplexing. As described herein, a track-and-hold circuit and related techniques can include use of a first-order (e.g., linear) extrapolation. A first-order extrapolation can better approximate or reconstruct a signal during a specified hold duration, as compared to a zeroth-order technique. Use of analog circuits to implement the first-order extrapolation can one or more of reduce complexity of a circuit implementation or improve performance, such as by not requiring digital signal processing circuitry in performing the extrapolation.

A dual integrator system comprises two integrators, an output stage, and a switching network. The first and second integrators receive a differential Hall sensor signal and a reference voltage. The first integrator outputs a first integrator signal based on the differential Hall sensor and the reference voltage. The second integrator outputs a second integrator signal based on the differential Hall sensor signal and the reference voltage. The first integrator comprises a first offset cancellation feedback loop, and the second integrator comprises a second offset cancellation feedback loop. The switching network is coupled to the first and second integrators and to the output stage, and alternates which of the first and second integrators is coupled to the output stage. In some embodiments, the first and second integrators each perform a reset operation, a sampling operation, an integration operation, a differential to single-ended conversion operation, and a holding operation.

A multiple output rectifier achieving effective supply of power to a plurality of loads. The multiple output rectifier converts an AC input signal into a first rectified output signal and a second rectified output signal, wherein the AC input signal has a fundamental period dividing into a first partial period where an AC current flows in a first direction and a second partial period where the AC current flows in a second direction being a reverse direction to the first direction. The multiple output rectifier includes a first input terminal and a second input terminal different from the first input terminal for input of the AC input signal. The multiple output rectifier further includes a common output terminal, a first output terminal, and a second output terminal. The common output terminal, the first output terminal, and the second output terminal are decoupled from each other for operation in a multiple output operative mode. In the multiple output operative mode and during the first partial period the multiple output rectifier is adapted to maintain polarity of the AC input signal and to transfer it to the second output terminal and the common output terminal as the first rectified output signal. Further, in the multiple output operative mode and during the second partial period the multiple output rectifier is adapted to reverse polarity of the AC input signal and to transfer it to the first output terminal and the common output terminal as the second rectified output signal. The multiple output rectifier may also comprise a switching circuit component between the first output terminal and the second output terminal to change the multiple output operative mode to a full bridge operative mode and vice versa.
