Abstract:
An amplifier circuit includes a high-voltage output stage. The high-voltage output stage includes an output terminal, a high-side output circuit, a low-side output circuit, and a feedback circuit. The high-side output circuit sources current to the output terminal, and includes a high-side input transistor, a first high-side cascode transistor coupled to the high-side input transistor, and a second high-side cascode transistor coupled to the first high-side cascode transistor and the output terminal. The low-side output circuit sinks current from the output terminal, and includes a low-side input transistor, a first low-side cascode transistor coupled to the low-side input transistor, and a second low-side cascode transistor coupled to the first low-side cascode transistor and the output terminal. The feedback circuit is configured to bias the second high-side cascode transistor and the second low-side cascode transistor based on a sense voltage generated by the high-side output circuit or the low-side output circuit.
