Abstract

An embodiment of a slew-rate enhancement output stage is disclosed. A first slew-rate enhancement circuit receives a first control voltage and outputs a first voltage. A second slew-rate enhancement circuit receives a second control voltage and outputs a second voltage. A first PMOS transistor includes a first first terminal coupled to a high voltage source, a first control terminal receiving the first voltage, and a first second terminal coupled to a voltage output terminal. A first NMOS transistor includes a second first terminal coupled to the voltage output terminal, a second control terminal for receiving the second voltage, and a second second terminal coupled to a low voltage source. The first voltage is higher than the first control voltage, and the second voltage is lower than the second control voltage.
