Circuits that provide a gate boost to address non-linear threshold voltage variation in a CMOS T/H circuit. In embodiments of the invention, a boost capacitor and a feedback amplifier add a signal-dependent threshold voltage to the switch gate over-drive voltage of a switch that controls track and hold circuit sampling. In a modified embodiment, capacitive boost is omitted and the feedback amplifier provides the signal-dependent threshold voltage boost. In another embodiment, a boost capacitor and a diode connected transistor provide the signal-dependent threshold voltage boost. In a modified embodiment, capacitive boost is omitted and the diode connected transistor provides the signal-dependent threshold voltage.
