--- Output Differences ---
1/2G1 + G3/16G1 = δ1
1/2G1 + G3/4G1 = δ2

Additional Low Power Techniques (1)
• Input transistors biased in weak inversion to maximize gm efficiency
• Opamp shut off during sampling phase
• Almost ideal 50% power saving due to short turn-on time of 200 ps

Additional Low Power Techniques (2) --- Stage Scaling ---
![Page 13: A 2.9-mW 11-b 20-MS/s Pipelined ADC with Dual-Mode …ham.seas.harvard.edu/upload/papers/2012/29mW_slides.pdfDual-Mode-Based Background ... sampling and charge transfer ...

Additional Low Power Techniques (3) --- No Sample-and-hold ---
• Sampling mismatch removed by moving comparators to the opamp output and adding a quantization phase between sampling and charge transfer phase. Shorten quantization phase by not loading CL.
