The operation includes a 39correlated-double-sampling phase that occurs once every 256 40clock periods, also called the 41.i "spreading ratio" . 42This reset phase is controlled by clocks $ DP sub 1 $ and $ DP 43sub 2 $ in which the integrator is initialized by totally 44removing the charge from $ cc F $ and storing the low-frequency 45noise of the op amp in $ cc C $. At the same time the comparison 46thresholds are set. 47.fl 48.po -0.2i 49.sp 2 50.lp 51.(b 52.EQ 53gsize -4 54.EN 55.GS 56roman 1 57italics 2 58bold 3 59special 4 60narrow 1 61medium 3 62thick 5 63width 5.5 64l mg 65file grnexmpl.g 66.GE 67.EQ 68gsize +4 69.EN 70.)b 71.fl 72.po +0.2i 73.pp 74The faster clocks are $ PN $, $ ITS $ and $ SP $. The sampling 75capacitor $ cc S $ performs the delayed subtraction of a sample 76of the input signal $ +- ^ vv SIG $ and a choice of $ - ^ vv REF 77$, $ AGND $ or $ + ^ vv REF $ according to the operations 78performed by the logic partially depicted operating on past 79results of the comparisons. The synchronous comparators are 80reset at this fast rates, thus performing one comparison for 81every fast clock cycle. The dynamic common-mode feedback 82arrangement operates synchronously with the reset time slot and 83its configuration is equivalent to that in the differential 84feedback path. 85
