Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention disclose operational amplifiers which demonstrate good settling behavior with minimum over-shoot or ringing for improving settling behavior. The amplifiers include one or more amplification stages connected to form a symmetric structure. The amplification stage includes a boosting amplifier, a MOS transistor and a compensation capacitor. The MOS transistor can be an NMOS transistor and a PMOS transistor. Using this scheme pole-zero doublets are rearranged in a manner to improve the transient settling response.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for a low pin architecture to couple speakers with integrated circuits are disclosed herein. In an implementation, the low pin architecture facilitates in reducing the required pin interfaces to couple a low power speaker, a high power speaker, and earphone speakers with integrated circuits (ICs). For this, the high power speaker can be cross-coupled between the pin interfaces that are coupled to the low power speaker and the earphone speakers. These pin interfaces are driven by corresponding driver circuits. In said implementation, some of the driver circuits can be shared to drive multiple pin interfaces. These shared driver circuits include a combined cascode circuit having a first cascode circuit integrated with a second cascode circuit to reliably and selectively drive one or more of the pin interfaces.
