Constant-gm constant-slew-rate high-bandwidth low-voltage rail-to-rail CMOS input stage for VLSI cell libraries.

Constant-gm constant-slew-rate high-bandwidth low-voltage rail-to-rail CMOS input stage for VLSI cell libraries.

This paper introduces a general-purpose low-voltage rail-to-rail input stage suitable for analog and mixed-signal applications. The proposed circuit provides, simultaneously, constant small-signal and large-signal behaviors over the entire input common-mode voltage range, while imposing no appreciab...
