Abstract
A differential pair of transistors receives input voltages. Current mirror transistors and cascode transistors are coupled to the differential pair of transistors. The differential pair of transistors is coupled between the cascode transistors and a tail transistor that draws a first bias current from a tail node, the first bias current having a magnitude equal to a product of a total bias current and a constant that is less than one. A first current source transistor draws a second bias current from a node between the differential pair and cascode transistors so the second bias current bypasses one transistor of the differential pair of transistors. The second bias current has a magnitude equal to a product of the total bias current and a value equal to one minus the constant. An output stage is biased by an output at node between the cascode transistors and the current mirror transistors.
