A source follower circuit is disclosed with an added amplifier that extends the low input voltage linear range while providing a lower output impedance. The drain of the source follower MOSFET is coupled to a gain stage that drives a second MOSFET (or other type transistor) with its drain coupled to the follower output. High impedance current sources bias the circuitry, and the difference amplifier has a reference voltage at one input. The difference amplifier with the reference voltage provides a feedback mechanism that maintain adequate drain to source voltage across the follower MOSFET to enhance the low input voltage linearity along with reducing the follower output resistance.
