ABSTRACT:
An operational amplifier includes first and second differential-input amplifiers of complementary conductivity type, each such differential-input amplifier including first and second transistors in long-tailed pair configuration having their drains connected to third and fourth transistors connected in current mirror amplifier configuration. An output amplifier includes a pair of complementary conductivity type transistors, each in common-source configuration, to supply signals to an output terminal. One output of the long-tailed pair and the output connection of the current mirror amplifier in the first differential-input amplifier directly connect to the gate of the first common-source amplifier. One output connection of the long-tailed pair and the output connection of the current mirror amplifier of the second differential-input amplifier directly connect to the gate input of the other common-source amplifier. A tail current supply for each long-tailed pair establishes its quiescent operating point.
