Patent ID: 8723604

Claim:
A system configured to extend a bandwidth and to improve slew behavior of a feedback amplifier, the system comprising: a first amplifier comprising at least a first stage and a second stage, the first stage having at least a non-inverting input node configured to receive an input signal and an inverting input node, the second stage having at least an output node, a non-inverting intermediate node and an inverting intermediate node; a first negative feedback path comprising a feedback resistance operatively coupled in a signal path between the output node and the inverting input node, the feedback resistance comprising a first resistor and a second resistor arranged in series; and a second negative feedback path comprising a compensation capacitor, the compensation capacitor operatively coupled in a signal path between the inverting intermediate node and a common node of the series-coupled first and second resistors, wherein the second negative feedback path shares a portion of the first negative feedback path comprising the first resistor.
