1000 is 60dB, at 20Mhz, is it possible? It's tough enough to do more than 60dB at DC, with single stage, what's more with 20MHz. Can you give me some links where I could find some info. on this? I am interested to see how it work.
In sample and hold, the amplifier must settle to within a range which you are comfortable with, say 0.1% within some time, eg.10ns. With 20Mhz, you have 1 sample coming in every 50ns.
For 0.1% accuracy, you need a settling time of about 7 times the time constant of your network of amplifier and capacitors. Assuming a settling time of 14ns is required, divide by 7 gives 2ns. At unity gain, this points to a unity gain bandwidth of 500MHz.
What was mentioned is purely for numerical illustration, you have to look at your system spec. to determine what's best for you.
The type of amplifier architecture you can use to attain this type of performance (>100MHz) is numerous, but they are all SINGLE stage. Look into literatures to compare btw the different architectures and choose accordingly.
