ABSTRACT:
Various source follower circuits and methods for implementing such are disclosed. As one example, a class AB source follower circuit is disclosed that includes a source follower circuit that is actively biased. The dynamic biasing allows the source follower circuit to sustainably sink a DC current. In some instances of the embodiments, the class AB source follower circuits are operable to source and sink both AC and DC currents.
