摘要:
An amplifier arrangement includes an output amplifier stage (OA) comprising a stage input (SIN), a stage output (SOUT) which is coupled to a signal output (OUT) of the amplifier arrangement, and a capacitive element (CE) which couples the stage output (SOUT) to the stage input (SIN). A driver stage (DR) comprises a driver input (DIN) and a driver output (DOUT) which is coupled to the stage input (SIN). The driver stage (DR) is configured to generate a voltage potential at a driver output (DOUT) depending on an input current at the driver input (DIN) and to provide a charging current to the capacitive element (CE) being higher than the input current.

A low noise amplifier having a wide operating frequency band and a high dynamic range is provided. A transformer having a secondary winding connected between an input terminal to which an input signal is applied and a positive differential output terminal, and a primary winding connected between a negative differential output terminal and an input node is provided as a feedback circuit between a cascode amplifier circuit, which includes transistors and a resistor, and an output circuit, which includes a transistor and a constant current source. Selective use of a transformer whose leakage inductance has an adequate value as the feedback transformer can realize a low noise amplifier which has a wide operating frequency band and a high dynamic range.

An operational amplifier includes a differential amplifier, an output stage, and a control unit. The differential amplifier generates a first current through a first output node and a second current through a second output node in response to a voltage difference between a first input signal input through a first input terminal and a second input signal input through a second input terminal. The output stage generates an output signal through an output node. The control unit receives a voltage of the first output node and a voltage of the second output node, as bias voltages, and controls an output current of the output stage to determine the output signal of the output stage in response to the received voltages of the first and second output nodes.

The present invention provides a cost-effective and power-effective solution to a high performance amplifier design over conventional Class A and Class B/AB amplifiers. Without increasing cost or losing simplification of conventional Class B/AB amplifier configuration, two kinds of unique local feedback loops, which cover the second and third stages and further offer a feedback shifting feature over frequency range, are disclosed to replace the traditional Miller compensation capacitor to suppress dominant distortion, which is usually generated by the two last stages while maintaining stability of the amplifier, through high frequency end. Since the present invention provides key elements of a three-stage amplifier that enable performance improvement in a wide range of circuit design, the present invention has significant commercial values in amplifier circuit industries including audio power amplifiers, IC (integrated circuit) operational amplifiers, ADC (Analog-to-Digital Conversion) and DAC (Digital-to-Analog Conversion) buffers, etc.

A common-mode feedback circuit is provided. An amplifier with a common-mode feedback circuit is compensated by adding a compensating unit so that the amplifier totally has two poles and one zero in its frequency response. Accordingly, the gain of the amplifier is not sacrificed, and both the stability and the phase margin of the circuit are improved.
