Background
The progress of the integrated circuit technology enables the working speed of the digital circuit to be continuously improved, the integration density to be continuously increased, the power supply voltage to be gradually reduced, and the data representing the comprehensive performance of the digital circuit to be obviously improved; however, process advances and supply voltage reductions degrade the performance of many important analog circuit blocks, affecting the most important amplifiers of the genus. As a basic module widely used in analog circuits, on the one hand, process progress has produced many non-ideal effects of CMOS devices, which have a large impact on sensitive analog circuits, and on the other hand, the structural choice of amplifiers is limited due to the reduced supply voltage. In view of this, the dynamic amplifier becomes a hot point of design and research, has a simple structure and no static power consumption, well adapts to low power supply voltage, and greatly reduces power consumption, so that the dynamic amplifier is applied to a plurality of circuits, such as an analog-to-digital converter (ADC); however, the gain of the dynamic amplifier is susceptible to the power supply voltage fluctuation, which is difficult to avoid in practical circuits, and this greatly limits the performance and the applicable range of the dynamic amplifier, so when designing and using the dynamic amplifier, it is necessary to consider reducing or eliminating the influence of the power supply voltage fluctuation on the gain.
