A 0.5 V quasi-floating-gate (QFG) inverter-based class-AB gain-bandwidth independent amplifier

This paper presents a 0.5 V QFG inverter-based class-AB gain-bandwidth independent amplifier. The circuit employs positive feedback to enhance the input impedance, and feed-forward technique to suppress the common-mode gain. The circuit is designed using 0.18 μm CMOS technology under 0.5 V supply. The simulation results show nearly constant bandwidth for various gain, rail-to-rail input/output swing, suppressed common-mode response, and good linearity. The power dissipation is 275 μW.
