Abstract From the Canadian patent

An operational amplifier capable of selectively performing a variety of circuit functions is provided. A single operational amplifier utilizes switched capacitors for sampling and holding an input signal for establishing, a low frequency pole for applying the sample to an output, capacitance to charge the capacitance and for comparing the input signal with a reference. The multi-function circuit provides a large savings in circuit area and permits versatility of circuit applications. One embodiment of the invention is to utilize a companding DAC having a capacitor array which may be used as the output capacitance of the operational amplifier circuit. The DAC provided utilizes an R ladder …
