A nested chopper circuit includes a first chopper section, which is coupled to input terminals and is controlled by a pair of non-overlapping clocks, and a second chopper section, which is coupled to the first chopper section and is controlled by a pair of chopper clocks. The pair of non-overlapping clocks is a multiple of the pair of chopper clocks, and the non-overlapping clocks are configured to invert on a period continuously. When the pair of chopper clocks (phi11 and phi12) controls switches S1, S2, S3, and S4 of the second section, these switches follow the following logic when operated in conjunction with the pair of non-overlapping clocks (phiA and phiB): switches S1 & S4: phiA.phi11+phiB.phi12; and switches S2 & S3: phiA.phi12+phiB.phi11. A method for chopping an analog input signal for sampling also is described.
