An error correction circuit for use with an analog-to-digital converter
(ADC) comprising correction capacitance switching means coupled to the
correction capacitance means. The switching means being coupled to ground
and to a plurality of reference voltages and being arranged to a couple a
bottom plate of the correction capacitance means to ground during a
sample phase of the ADC and to one of a plurality of reference voltages
during a hold phase of the ADC.
