For a given TP2 period, M1/M2 raises the VSA1/VSA2 by the amount of ΔVSA1/ΔVSA2. Due to AC-coupling behavior of C1/C2, the ΔVSA1 reduces the VG2 and ΔVSA2 reduces the VG1. This results in an amplification of the current ratio (CR=IM2/IM1) or current difference (ΔIM1-M2=IM1-IM2) between M1 and M2. This CR-amplification speeds up the development of difference (ΔVSA) between VSA1 and VSA2. In phase-3 (2nd-stage amplifying), the EN turns on the NMOS-latch and pulls down the SA2 while M1 continually charges the SA1 to VDD. Finally, the digital output is generated at node SA1 and SA2.
