Questions tagged [sample-and-hold]
Anything related to sample and hold (S/H) circuits. S/H circuits are analog circuits whose purpose is that of sampling the instantaneous value of an analog signal and store that value for a predefined period of time. They are sort of analog memory circuits, and they are often employed as the first stage of analog to digital converter systems.
