This work presents a high-slew rate rail-to-rail buffer amplifier, which can be used for flat panel displays. The proposed buffer amplifier is composed of two transconductance amplifiers, two current comparators and a push-pull output stage. Phase compensation technique is also used to improve the phase margin value of the proposed buffer amplifier for different load capacitances. Post-layout simulations of the proposed buffer amplifier are performed using 0.35 μm AMS CMOS process parameters and 3.3 V power supply. The circuit is tested under a 600 pF capacitive load. An average settling time of 0.85 μs under a full voltage swing is obtained, while only 3 μA quiescent current is drawn from the power supply. Monte Carlo analysis is also added to show the process variation effects on the circuit.

The present paper addresses an improved low-power high-speed buffer amplifier topology for large-size liquid crystal display applications. The proposed buffer achieves high-speed driving performance while drawing a low quiescent current during static operation. The circuit offers enhanced slewing capabilities with a limited power consumption by exploiting a slew detector which monitors the output voltage of the input differential amplifier and outputs an additional current signal providing slew-rate enhancement at the output stage. Post-layout simulations show that the proposed buffer can drive a 1 nF column line load with 8.5 V/μs slew-rate and 0.8 μs settling time, while drawing only 8 μA static current from a 3 V power supply.

A high-slew-rate, low-power, CMOS, rail-to-rail buffer amplifier for large flat-panel-display (FPD) applications is proposed. The major circuit of the output buffer is a rail-to-rail, folded-cascode, class-AB amplifier which can control the tail current source using a compact, novel, adaptive biasing scheme. The proposed output buffer amplifier enhances the slew rate throughout the entire rail-to-rail input signal range. To obtain a high slew rate and low power consumption without increasing the static current, the tail current source of the adaptive biasing generates extra current during the transition time of the output buffer amplifier. A column driver IC incorporating the proposed buffer amplifier was fabricated in a 1.6-μm 18-V CMOS technology, whose evaluation results indicated that the static current was reduced by up to 39.2% when providing an identical settling time. The proposed amplifier also achieved up to 49.1% (90% falling) and 19.9 % (99.9% falling) improvements in terms of settling time for almost the same static current drawn and active area occupied.
