Abstract
A circuit includes first and second gain stages and an output transistor. The second gain stage includes a transconductance amplifier and a variable impedance circuit coupled to an output of the transconductance amplifier. The variable impedance circuit is configured to implement a first impedance level at frequencies below a first frequency threshold and to implement a second impedance level at frequencies above a second frequency level. The first impedance level is larger than the second impedance level. The output transistor has a control input coupled to the variable impedance circuit. At frequencies above the second frequency threshold, the second impedance level is configured to be inversely related to current through the output transistor.
