An approach to implement single-ended power-efficient static class-AB Miller op-amps with symmetrical and significantly enhanced slew-rate and accurately controlled output quiescent current is introduced. The proposed op-amp can drive a wide range of resistive and capacitive loads. The output positive and negative currents can be much higher than the total op-amp quiescent current. The enhanced performance is achieved by utilizing a simple low-power auxiliary amplifier with resistive local common-mode feedback that increases the quiescent power dissipation by less than 10%. The proposed class AB op-amp is characterized by significantly enhanced large-signal dynamic, static current efficiency, and small-signal figures of merits. The dynamic current efficiency is 15.6 higher, the static current efficiency is 8.9 times higher, and the small-signal figure of merit is 2.3 times higher than the conventional class-A op-amp. A global figure of merit that determines an op-amp’s ultimate speed is 6.33 times higher than the conventional class A op-amp.

A very high bandwidth class AB (Push-Pull) current amplifier using the compensation resistor technique is presented and analyzed. Such technique stands as a powerful method of bandwidth enhancement for general circuits using CMOS current mirrors. The proposed bandwidth is enhanced from 675 MHz for the uncompensated current amplifier to 745MHz for the compensated one without affecting the current gain and other design parameters such as power consumption and output swing. The circuit exhibits a current gain of 20 dB and consumes 1.48 mW for ?2.5V power supply voltage. All simulation results were performed using Hspice tool with 0.35^m CMOS TSMC parameters.

The full-wave wide-band precision rectifier with modified second type current conveyor (MCCII), realized with the operational amplifier and three current mirrors (CM), is presented in this paper. The model of operational amplifier is adapted in such a way that it is possible to use supply-current sensing in supply rails of operational amplifier with SPICE program. Wilson's realization for current mirrors is used for precise current reproduction in a wide range of the amplitude values as well as frequencies.
