Abstract
A method and circuitry for time-sharing a digitally-programmable capacitive element, particularly in conjunction with a switched-capacitor filter circuit. The method includes: selecting a first capacitance value for the capacitive element; initializing the charge on the capacitive element; connecting the capacitive element to first preselected nodes of an electronic circuit; disconnecting the capacitive element from the first preselected nodes of after any charge transfer has substantially been completed; changing the capacitance of the capacitive element to a new desired value; initializing the charge on the capacitive element; and then connecting the capacitive element to other preselected nodes of the electronic circuit. A biquad switched-capacitor filter circuit is configured to use such method in its operation.
