  • Amplifier with folded super-followers
    Patent number: 6356152
    Abstract: Fixed gain amplifiers have particular use in the read channel of hard disk drives. A CMOS fixed gain amplifier 18c having a constant gain over the large dynamic range of hard disk drive applications is provided by incorporating super follower transistors M3 and M4 into the input stage of the fixed gain amplifier. The super follower transistors are folded into the output stage of the amplifier. The differential current through the degeneration resistor RE1 travels through the super follower transistors M3 and M4 and into the current mirrors I5 and I6. Thus the ac differential current goes directly to the cascoded stage, into the load resistors RL1 and RL2, and to the output load.
