  • Patent number: 10797662
    Abstract: An amplifying circuit may include: an amplifier configured to receive a first input voltage and output a first output voltage by amplifying the first input voltage; and a common-mode feedback circuit configured to enable the first output voltage to operate in a common mode by receiving the first output voltage and performing a feedback to adjust at least one feedback voltage applied to the amplifier based on the first output voltage. The common-mode feedback circuit may include a first Miller compensation circuit configured to perform dominant pole compensation by using a Miller effect for the common-mode feedback circuit. The first Miller compensation circuit may include a resistor and a capacitor.
