Abstract
A current-sink buffer is provided including a differential amplifier having a closed first-loop to provide a buffered output voltage, and a closed second-loop to sink transients in a load current of an output to ground. The first-loop includes a first transistor with a gate coupled to a reference-voltage, and a source coupled to a current-source; a second transistor with a gate coupled to a drain and the output, and a source coupled to the source of the first transistor; a first current-sink through which a drain of the first transistor is coupled to ground; and a second current-sink through which the second transistor drain is coupled to ground. The second-loop includes a third transistor with a grounded source, a drain coupled to the second transistor drain, and a gate coupled to the first transistor drain, and a capacitor coupled between the gate and drain of the third transistor.
