General purpose rail-to-rail input circuit with constant behaviour for VLSI cell libraries

A general purpose rail-to-rail input stage suitable for analogue and mixed signal applications and compatible with modern submicron CMOS technologies is introduced. The circuit provides, simultaneously, a constant small- signal and large-signal behaviour over the entire input commonmode voltage rang...

Zusammenfassung:A general purpose rail-to-rail input stage suitable for analogue and mixed signal applications and compatible with modern submicron CMOS technologies is introduced. The circuit provides, simultaneously, a constant small- signal and large-signal behaviour over the entire input commonmode voltage range, whilst imposing no appreciable constraint for high-frequency operation. The experimental results are given.
