Abstract

See full text

An amplifier, particularly a CMOS amplifier has a differential input which is fed to six differential pairs. The outputs of the first and third differential pair are combined and fed to inputs of a summing network, while the outputs of the fourth and fifth are combined and fed to inputs of the summing network. The second and sixth differential pairs are arranged to cancel the tail currents of the fifth and third pairs, respectively, when all of the devices are in their active state. Thus, regardless of the common mode input level with respect to the supply rails the output current is provided by four devices giving a constant g.sub.m and slew rate.
