Abstract:
A low-impedance output stage which operates from a low voltage power supply. In an embodiment, the output stage contains an operational amplifier and two PMOS transistors used in a feedback configuration resulting in low output impedance. The output stage may also include a capacitor connected between the output terminal of the output stage and the input of the PMOS transistor providing the output, resulting in an overall output impedance which remains low even at higher frequencies, thus enabling use of the output stage to drive capacitive loads without causing resonance.
