Amplifiers with wide input range and low input capacitance are provided. In certain embodiments, an amplifier input stage includes a pair of input terminals, a pair of n-type input transistors, a first pair of isolation switches connected between the input terminals and the n-type input transistors, a pair of p-type input transistors, and a second pair of isolation switches connected between the input terminals and the p-type input transistors. The amplifier input stage further includes a control circuit that determines whether to use the n-type input transistors and/or the p-type input transistors for amplification based on a detected common-mode voltage of the input terminals. The control circuit opens the first pair of isolation switches to decouple the input terminals from the n-type input transistors when unused, and opens the second pair of isolation switches to decouple the input terminals from the p-type input transistors when unused.
