Abstract :
A systematic comparison of flipped voltage followers circuits is presented. Two new versions of the flipped voltage follower are introduced. They are characterized by very low output impedance, high bandwidth speed, wide signal swing. All structures can be easily modified for class AB operation. Simulation results show that the newly introduced structures have optimal characteristics
