Claim 10:
11. A charge-steering amplifier circuit having a first input terminal, a second input terminal, a third input terminal, a fourth input terminal, a first output terminal, and a second output terminal, comprising:
a first transistor having a first terminal, a second terminal, and a first control terminal, wherein the first control terminal is electrically connected to the first input terminal, and the second terminal is electrically connected to the first output terminal;
a second transistor having a third terminal, a fourth terminal, and a second control terminal, wherein the second control terminal is electrically connected to the second input terminal, the fourth terminal is electrically connected to the second output terminal, and the third terminal is electrically connected to the first terminal;
a third transistor having a fifth terminal, a sixth terminal, and a third control terminal, wherein the third control terminal is electrically connected to the third input terminal, and the sixth terminal is electrically connected to the first output terminal;
a fourth transistor having a seventh terminal, an eighth terminal, and a fourth control terminal, wherein the fourth control terminal is electrically connected to the fourth input terminal, the eighth terminal is electrically connected to the second output terminal, and the seventh terminal is electrically connected to the fifth terminal;
a first capacitor coupled between the first terminal and a reference voltage;
a second capacitor coupled between the fifth terminal and the reference voltage;
a third capacitor coupled between the first output terminal and the reference voltage;
a fourth capacitor coupled between the second output terminal and the reference voltage;
a first switch coupled between the first capacitor and the first terminal;
a second switch coupled to the first capacitor, wherein the first capacitor discharges when the second switch is turned on;
a third switch coupled between the second capacitor and the fifth terminal;
a fourth switch coupled to the second capacitor, wherein the second capacitor charges when the fourth switch is turned on;
a fifth switch configured to couple the first output terminal to a first target voltage or a second target voltage; and
