Abstract:
The present invention relates to an operational amplifier having low power consumption, which comprises a differential circuit, an output-stage circuit, and a floating bias generating circuit. The differential circuit receives an input signal and produces a control signal. The output-stage circuit is coupled to the differential circuit and produces an output signal according to the control signal. The floating bias generating circuit is coupled between the differential circuit and the output-stage circuit and generates a floating bias according to the control signal for controlling the rising or lowering of the voltage level of the output signal. Accordingly, the operational amplifier can charge and discharge rapidly, and thus extending the applications of the operational amplifier. Besides, the floating bias generating circuit can limit the output current while the operational amplifier is driving, and thus achieving the purpose of low power consumption.
