An integrator system may have a pair of sampling circuits each having a sampling capacitor to sample a respective component of a differential input signal, and an integrator having inputs coupled to outputs of the sampling circuits. The system may have a shorting switch coupled between input terminals of the sampling capacitors. The shorting switch may be engaged during an interstitial phase between sampling and output phases of the sampling circuits. By shorting input terminals of the sampling capacitors together, the design reduces current drawn by the system and, in some designs, severs relationships between current draw and information content sampled by the system. The integrator system may receive analog and digital input signals.
