A two-stage differential amplifier with cross-coupled compensation capacitors. The differential amplifier includes first amplifier circuitry receiving a differential input voltage and presenting first and second intermediate outputs. The amplifier further includes a second amplifier stage with a first leg having an input coupled to the second intermediate output of the first amplifier circuitry, and a second leg having an input coupled to the first intermediate output of the first amplifier circuitry. A compensation capacitor is provided for each leg of the second amplifier stage, each coupled between the output of that amplifier leg and its input. A first cross-coupled capacitor is coupled between the output of the first amplifier leg to the input of the second amplifier leg, and a second cross-coupled capacitor is coupled between the output of the second amplifier leg and the input of the first amplifier leg.
