Abstract :
The paper presents a rail-to-rail class-AB operational amplifier in a standard vth=0.6 V CMOS technology operating at 1.5 V. A hybrid nested Miller compensation technique yields 6 MHz unity gain frequency at 300 μA supply current, 120 dB gain and programmability. Operation down to 1.0 V at 15 μA is possible with 300 kHz UGF. The die area of the chip is 0.05 mm2 (70 mil2)
