<p>The present invention refers to a completely differential operational amplifier of the folded cascode type. In one embodiment the completely differential operational amplifier of the folded cascode type comprises: a differential output stage (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 21, 22); a differential input stage (11, 12) able to drive said output stage (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 21, 22); said differential output stage (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 21, 22) includes a first branch (15, 16, 17, 18) having at least a first (16) and a second (17) transistor, and a second branch (19, 20 21, 22) having at least a third (20) and a fourth (21) transistor; said first (15, 16, 17, 18) and second (19, 20 21, 22) branch are coupled to a first (VDD) and to a second (GND) feeding voltage; a feedback circuit (40) of said first (16), second (17), third (20) and fourth (21) transistors; characterized in that said feedback circuit (40) is constituted by a single amplifier (40) having four inputs (IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4) and four outputs (OUT1, OUT2, OUTS, OUT4), said four inputs (IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4) take the voltage present on a terminal (23, 13, 24, 14) of said first (16), second (17), third (20) and fourth (21) transistors, and said four outputs (OUT1, OUT2, OUT3, OUT4) provide each a voltage to the control elements of said first (16), second (17), third (20) and fourth (21) transistors, which depend on the value of the input voltage of said four inputs (IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4). <IMAGE></p> |
