Hello all,
I am designing a nmos source follower circuit to use it both as buffer and level shifter in my design.A long time ago a colleague had told me that for this circuit a lot of bias current is needed for good linearity but he didn't explain me further...Now,i need this info!Can somebody explain me this with some equations or some references that give a proof?
And another question.As an alternative buffer topology except from an opamp with high low-freq. gain connected as unity gain amplifier,is there any other topology that can be used for this purpose?
Any helpful answer or other kind of source would be appreciated.
Best Regards,
