    The document discusses the sample and hold circuit, which samples an analog input signal at regular intervals and holds the value constant between samples. It works by using a switch to connect a capacitor to the output of a buffer amplifier, allowing the capacitor to charge to the instantaneous input voltage level. This voltage is then held steady while the switch disconnects the capacitor from the buffer. The sample and hold circuit thus converts a continuously varying analog signal into a piecewise constant signal that can be used for analog to digital conversion by taking samples at discrete time intervals.

    Introduction
    One of the most important steps in analog to digital conversions is to sample an analog signal
    and to perform this step we use the (Sample\Hold circuit) which samples at regular intervals
    called sampling intervals and takes them at fixed time interval.
    2. Working of the Sample & Hold Circuit
    Sample and hold circuit samples the voltage of a continuously varying analogue signal and holds
    its value at a constant level for a minimum specific duration of time. A capacitor is used in a
    typical sample and hold circuit to store electric charge as it saves the value to further processing.
    S\H circuit contains normally one op-amp and at least one switching device. The switch connects
    the capacitor to the output of a buffer amplifier whenever it takes samples of the input signal.
    The capacitor charges or discharged by buffer amplifier so that the voltage across the capacitor is
    equal or proportional to the input voltage. The buffer is disconnected from the capacitor by the
    switch in hold mode. Leakage currents are responsible for discharging of the capacitor. (Input
    voltage Vi is applied at the drain terminal of E-MOSFET. Also, a sample and hold control
    voltage, Vs is provided at the gate terminal of the E-MOS. It is noteworthy here that the applied
    input signal is analog in nature while the control voltage applied at the gate terminal is a square
    wave. So, at the time when input is provided at the drain terminal and positive pulse of control
    signal Vs is applied at the gate terminal, then due to this, the MOSFET comes in conducting
    state.) Source: https://electronicsdesk.com/sample-and-hold-circuit.html

    Sample and Hold circuit which samples the input signal and holds onto its last sampled value
    until the input is sampled again. So you take the samples of the input signal, then there will be an
    available particular value and this value holds at the output of the circuit until the input is
    sampled again and again. And during this sampling period (Ts) the input is taken and the output
    is not going to change.

    3. Discussion
    The Analog Signal is continuous in time and amplitude as carries infinite information of time
    and amplitude. The analog signal has some values defined at every time instant, so it has infinite
    numbers of samples point. Sample\Hold circuit is important in signal processing since it used in
    so many applications such as multiplexers, operational amplifiers, and in data-distribution
    systems. Basically the sample and hold circuit, samples the analog signal and the capacitor
    present holds these samples. This sampled value when provided to the ADC, it generates a
    discrete signal from an analog one.
