Abstract: An analog multiplier for multiplying a first analog voltage signal at a first frequency by a second analog voltage signal at a second frequency, comprising a first stage for converting the first analog voltage signal into a first and a second current signals, and a second stage comprising a first and a second cross-coupled current-switching pairs, driven by the second voltage signal, the first and second current-switching pairs having respective current inputs for receiving the first and the second current signals, respectively. Parasitic capacitances are inherently associated with each current input of the current-switching pairs. A compensation circuit is coupled to the current inputs of the current-switching pairs for compensating the parasitic capacitances.

Abstract: A switched operational amplifier with fully differential topology, alternately switchable on and off, and a control circuit. The operational amplifier has a first differential output (4a) and a second differential output, and a control terminal. The control circuit includes a capacitive detecting network including a first capacitor and a second capacitor connected between the first and second differential outputs and a common-mode node, and a third capacitor connected between the common-mode node and ground in a first operative condition, and between the common-mode node and the supply voltage in a second operative condition. A control transistor is connected between the common-mode node and the control terminal of the operational amplifier and supplies a control current correlated to the voltage on the common-mode node. A switchable voltage source, connected to the common-mode node, supplies a desired voltage in a first operative condition, when the operational amplifier is off.
