  • Publication number: 20230018356
    Abstract: In an embodiment an amplifier includes a first MOS transistor having a drain connected to an output of the amplifier and a source coupled to a first node configured to receive a first power supply potential, a first capacitive element connected between an input of the amplifier and a gate of the first MOS transistor, a first current source connecting the drain of the first MOS transistor to a second node configured to receive a second power supply potential and a resistive element and a second capacitive element connected in parallel between the gate and the drain of the first MOS transistor, the resistive element including a switched capacitor.

  • Patent number: 10359800
    Abstract: An integrated circuit includes a first stage configured to receive a bias current. A current regulation loop includes a transimpedance amplifier having a first transistor, and a second transistor having a gate coupled to a gate of the first transistor. The first transistor and the second transistor are configured to compare the bias current with a reference current, and to generate a regulation voltage on an output node of the transimpedance amplifier. A capacitor is coupled between the output node of the transimpedance amplifier and the gates of the first and second transistors.
