Zusammenfassung:Methods and circuits for maximizing gain of a voltage follower circuit are provided. The method includes using a NMOS voltage replica generation circuit, a PMOS voltage replica generation circuit, a NPN BJT voltage replica generation circuit, a n-channel JFET voltage replica generation circuit, a P-Channel JFET voltage replica generation circuit and a PNP BJT voltage replica generation circuit. The overall gain for the various transistor families is almost equal to unity.
