Abstract :
Presents a summary of two dozen patents and includes abstracts as well as diagrams, where applicable. Covers such technologies, techniques, and/or methodologies as: a class AB folded-cascode having cascode compensation; bandgap curvature correction and post-package trim implemented therewith; a method of forming a BJT with ESD self protection; a fully differential current-feedback CMOS/bipolar operational amplifier; automatic gain control using multi-comparators; and methods and systems for converting a single-ended signal to a differential signal.
