Title: Fully differential rail-to-rail output amplifier with inverter-based input pair

Abstract

A fully differential rail-to-rail-output amplifier includes a differential input inverter pair, folded cascode pair, class AB control pair, and class AB output rail-to-rail pair. A drain associated with the folded cascode pair is operatively coupled to the class AB control pair, and the drain associated with the folded cascode pair is unconnected to the current source associated with the class AB control pair. A method of providing fully differential rail-to-rail-output amplification includes coupling a folded cascode pair operatively to a differential input inverter pair, coupling a drain associated with the folded cascode pair operatively to a class AB control pair, and coupling a class AB output rail-to-rail pair operatively to the class AB control pair.
