Abstract

The authors present a new low-noise class AB buffer amplifier. The proposed buffer amplifier achieves a low noise with fast settling time and low power consumption. The buffer amplifier circuit attains an input referred noise voltage of 12.8 $$ {{\text{nV}} /{\sqrt {\text{Hz}}}} $$ , a DC gain of 108 dB, a unit-gain frequency of 8 MHz, and rising slew rate of 36 V/μs, as the load capacitance equals 150 pF. The circuit is power efficient when driving large capacitive loads and is well suited for low noise low power analog video buffer applications.
