  • Abstract
    In this paper a new compact CMOS class AB buffer is presented. Its simple implementation relies on the use of the Flipped Voltage Follower (FVF). Simulation results from a 0.35 μm CMOS technology are presented that prove the operating principle under low-power conditions. This buffer can also find application in testing of analog CMOS VLSI circuits, as the input capacitance can be very low without diminishing its output drive capability.
