Abstract
An amplifier circuit has an output stage, a first current source, a second current source, a third current source, a fourth current source, and a voltage clamping voltage. The output stage has a first P-type transistor and a first N-type transistor. The voltage clamping circuit receives a first bias voltage and a second bias voltage, and has a first end and a second end. When a second input current is positive current and the input current is a negative current or a zero current, the first end provides a first clamping voltage greater than the first bias voltage to a gate of the first P-type transistor. When the first input current is positive and the second input current is a negative current or zero current, the second end provides a second clamping voltage lower than the second bias voltage to a gate of the first N-type transistor.
