Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a circuit structure. An error amplifier of the structure includes an input terminal coupled to a voltage source, a reference terminal, and an output terminal coupled to a back-gate terminal of a power amplifier. A voltage at the output terminal of the error amplifier indicates a voltage difference between the input terminal and the reference terminal. A logarithmic current source may be coupled to the reference terminal of the error amplifier, the logarithmic current being configured to generate a reference current logarithmically proportionate to a voltage level of the voltage source. A plurality of serially coupled transistor cells, having a shared substrate and coupled between the reference terminal of the error amplifier and ground, each may include a back-gate terminal coupled to the output terminal of the error amplifier.
