A source follower for buffering the output of a MEMS microphone comprises a source follower M1, its current bias transistor M2, and an inverting current boost stage M3-M6 that reduces the output impedance. Positive feedback in the loop through the feedback capacitor C1V, bias transistor M2, and the current boost stage provides a voltage gain greater than one. C1V and/or C2V may be programmable so that the voltage gain can be adjusted. The current boost stage A may comprise both a pull-down section M3 and a pull-up M4-M6 |
