In one aspect, an analog-to-digital converter circuit includes a transimpedance amplifier including a feedback capacitor electrically connected between an inverting or a non-inverting input of the transimpedance amplifier and an output of the transimpedance amplifier. The circuit includes an hourglass switch electrically connected on a first side to a first input and a second input, and electrically connected on a second side to the non-inverting input and the inverting input. A fine input current to the transimpedance amplifier is received at the first and second inputs. In a first mode, the hourglass switch electrically connects the first input to the non-inverting input and the second input to the inverting input, and in a second mode, the hourglass switch electrically connects the second input to the non-inverting input and the first input to the inverting input.
