The design of single-stage OTAs for accurate switched-capacitor circuits involves challenging trade-offs between speed and power consumption. The addition of a Slew-Rate Enhancer (SRE) circuit placed in parallel to the main OTA (parallel-type SRE) co...
Slew-rate enhancement (SRE) techniques assist the charge transfer process in OTA-based switched-capacitor circuits. Parallel-type slew-rate enhancement circuits, i.e., circuits that provide a feed-forward path external to the main OTA, are attractive...
Parallel-type slew-rate enhancers (PSREs) improve the driving capability of operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) for large capacitive loads. While capacitive-boosting (CB) techniques enhance PSRE efficiency in fully-differential designs, th...
