    摘要: A common mode detector (10) for producing an output voltage (VA+VB)/2 in response to input voltages VA and VB contains a pair of MOS transistors (MA and MB) connected in series between a pair of input terminals A and B to which the input voltages (VA and VB) are to be applied. A separate feedback path runs from each input terminal (A, B) through a separate load device (LA2, LB2) to a gate control terminal of the respective MOS transistor (MA, MB), and a separate other feedback path runs from each input terminal (A, B) through a separate other load device (LA3, LB3) to a substrate terminal (SA, SB) of the respective MOS transistors. In this way, the respective feedback paths deliver to the respective gate terminals respective voltages equal to (VDD+VA)/2 and (VDD+VB)/2, respectively, while the other feedback paths deliver to the substrates of the respective MOS transistors (MA, MB) respective substrate bias voltages equal to (VSS+VA)/2 and (VSS+VB)/2, whereby the common mode voltage (VA+VB)/2 is developed at a node (AB) between the pair of MOS transistors (MA, MB).

    摘要: An operational amplifier with two differential pairs coupled to different current sources. The gate terminals of the transistors in the first differential pair are used as input terminals providing common mode input for most of the rail-to-rail voltage. The bulk terminals of the transistors in the second differential pair are used as input terminals providing common mode input for the remainder of the rail-to-rail voltage to thereby accomplish full rail-to-rail common mode. By using the bulk terminals of the field effect transistors in the second differential pair, rather than the gate terminals, as the input terminal, the operational amplifier may be constructing in a single well, thereby being compatible with standard digital CMOS processes. Alternatively, the bulk-driven transistors may be replaced with gate-driven depletion type transistors. The high voltage transistors in the output stage further reduce the offset voltage of the operational amplifier.

    摘要: Disclosed is a generator and method for using the generator to negate offset voltages in operational amplifiers. The generator includes an operational amplifier (op amp) whose input stage includes a current source coupled to a differential pair of input devices. The physical characteristics of the devices are such that an intentional offset voltage greater than the normal op amp offset voltage is provided in the input stage. The output terminal of the generator op amp is connected to the substrate terminal of one of the input devices. The offset voltages of other op amps can be negated by interconnecting the substrate terminal of one device in each input differential pair to the output terminal of the generator op amp and creating an intentional offset voltage in the input differential pair of each op amp.

    摘要: The circuit includes means for limiting the potential difference that can exist between corresponding electrodes of two input transistors interconnected to form a differential amplifier stage. The control electrode of each input transistor is coupled via a normally conducting gating transistor to its respective input terminal and via a normally non-conducting clamping transistor to a common point to which is connected one end (source or emitter) of the main conduction paths of the two input transistors. In response to an input signal at an input terminal having a polarity and a first value to turn off an input transistor, the gating transistor is turned off and decouples the control electrode of the input transistor from its corresponding input terminal. Then, as the input signal increases beyond the first value in a direction to further reverse bias the input transistor, the clamping transistor is turned on and clamps the control electrode of the input transistor to the common point. The circuit may also include means connected to the output (drain or collector) electrodes of the two input transistor to prevent excessive voltage differentials between their output electrodes.
