| Zusammenfassung: | Apparatus and methods for reducing load-induced non-linearity in amplifiers are provided. In certain implementations, an amplifier includes a current mirror, a buffer circuit, and an output stage. The buffer circuit can have a relatively high current gain and a voltage gain about equal to 1. The buffer circuit can amplify a mirrored current generated by the current mirror and provide the amplified mirrored current to the output stage, thereby helping to balance or equalize currents in the current mirror and avoiding the impact of load-induced offset error. |
