Abstract

An emitter follower circuit with feed forward compensation includes an emitter follower having an emitter follower input and an emitter follower output. An auxiliary emitter follower has an auxiliary emitter follower input and an auxiliary emitter follower output. The emitter follower input is coupled to the auxiliary emitter follower input and the emitter follower output is capacitively coupled to the auxiliary emitter follower output. In this manner, ringing of the emitter follower circuit with feed forward compensation is reduced by the capacitive coupling of the auxiliary emitter follower output to the emitter follower output.
