Abstract
An operational circuit includes: a first stage having a first input terminal for receiving an input signal and a second input terminal for receiving an output signal of the operational circuit, for outputting a first control signal at a first output terminal and a second control signal at a second output terminal according to the input signal and the output signal; and a second stage coupled to the first stage, for generating the output signal according to a first driving current controlled by the first control signal and a second driving current controlled by the second control signal; and a protection circuit coupled between the first stage and the second stage, for adjusting the first driving current from a first predetermined threshold current toward a second predetermined threshold current when the first driving current reaches the first predetermined threshold current.
