    Abstract: An input stage of an operational amplifier receives first and second input voltages. An output slew detection circuit decreases a first current responsive to slewing of an output of the operational amplifier and increases the first current responsive to no slewing. A slew boost and differential input voltage detection generates a second current at a first level when the first and second input voltages are approximately equal and to generate the second current at a second level, smaller than the first level, responsive to the first and second input voltages not being approximately equal. A voltage on a capacitor increases responsive to the first current from the output slew detection circuit increasing and responsive to the second current being at the second level. A current mirror is activated responsive to the voltage on the capacitor exceeding a second threshold. The current mirror decreases a third current of the input stage.
