Abstract: A wide-band sample and hold circuit comprising an input buffer for inputting an analog input signal and buffering the inputted analog input signal, 1/2 frequency divider for frequency-dividing a sample and hold clock signal by two and outputting a 1/2 frequency clock signal, first switching circuit for switching in turn an output signal from said input buffer to sample and hold condensers in accordance with the 1/2 frequency clock signal, second switching circuit for switching selectivel sample and hold signals from the sample and hold condensers in accordance with said 1/2 frequency clock signal and transferring or block the selectively switched sample and hold signals in accordance with an inverted sample and hold clock signal, and an output buffer for buffering an output signal from said second switching circuit and outputting the buffered signal as an output signal of the sample and hold circuit.
