Patent ID: 7852154

Claim:
An amplifier circuit, comprising: a follower device including a first three-terminal device, the first three-terminal device having a gate, a drain, and a source; a slew enhancement circuit including a second three-terminal device, and a current amplifier for increasing current to the follower device, wherein the second three-terminal device is coupled with the first three-terminal device, the second three-terminal device having a gate, a drain, and a source; a cascode device for bootstrapping the follower device, the cascode device coupled with the follower device and the slew enhancement circuit, the cascode device having a gate, a drain and a source; a power supply voltage having a positive and negative terminal; and a first current source that biases the first three-terminal device and is coupled with the first three-terminal device, the first current source having an input and an output terminal.
