چکیده

A new design approach for three-stage operational amplifiers (op-amps) is proposed. It allows to actually implement a symmetrical push-pull class-AB amplifier output stage for wellestablished three-stage amplifiers using a feedforward transconductance stage. Compared with the conventional design practice, the proposed approach leads to a significant improvement of the symmetry between the positive and the negative op-amp step response, resulting in similar values of the positive/negative settling time. The new approach proves to be very useful in order to fully exploit the potentiality allowed by the op-amp in terms of speed performances. Design examples in a commercial 0.35-μm CMOS prove the effectiveness of theproposed strategy. Keywords—Low-voltage op amp, design , optimum design

A Novel Low Voltage, Low Power and High Gain Operational Amplifier Using Negative Resistance and Self Cascode Transistors

In this work a low power, low voltage and high gain operational amplifier is proposed. For this purpose a negative resistance structure is used in parallel with output to improve the achievable gain. Because of using self cascode transistors in the output, the proposed structure remains approximately constant in a relatively large output voltage swing causing an invariable gain. To evaluate the...

A New Low-Voltage, Low-Power and High-Slew Rate CMOS Unity-Gain Buffer

Class-AB circuits, which are able to deal with currents several orders of magnitude larger than their quiescent current, are good candidates for low-power and high slew-rate analog design. This paper presents a novel topology of a class AB flipped voltage follower (FVF) that has better slew rate and the same power consumption as the conventional class-AB FVF buffer previously presented in liter...
