Use Analog I/O Ports as Infinite Sample/Holds and Peak Followers

The challenges in acquiring signals rapidly and accurately with high-speed sample-and-hold amplifiers are well known and documented. However, less well-known is the problem at the other end of the spectrum: finding a sample-and-hold that will retain the held signal for a significantly long time without losing accuracy due to droop.
