Abstract

A novel class AB two stage operational amplifier was presented to deal with the problem of the conventional class A two stage operational amplifier’s limited slew rate. The output stage quiescent current was controlled accurately and the slew rate and unity gain bandwidth were enhanced significantly, along with no additional static power dissipation. Simulation results show that the positive and negative slew rates were raised to 35 and 2.2 times and unity gain bandwidth was raised to 5 times when compared with conventional class A operational amplifier.
