Abstract
Abstract An operational amplifier which comprises a first amplifying circuit; a second amplifying circuit which is connected to the first amplifying circuit and carries out inverting amplification; a third amplifying circuit which is connected to the second amplifying circuit, carries out noninverting amplification and has a gain of substantially 1; a first feedback circuit which is connected between the output and input terminals of the second amplifying circuit and carries out phase-compensation; and a second feedback circuit which is connected between the output terminal of the third amplifying circuit and the input terminal of the second amplifying circuit, and carries out phase-compensation.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
136 words
An operational amplifier which comprises: first amplifying means; second amplifying means connected to the output of the first amplifying means and carrying out inverting amplification; third amplifying means connected to the output of the second amplifying means and carrying out noninverting amplification with a gain of substantially 1, said third amplifying means including a source follower circuit and being formed of a noninverting amplifier whose output impedance is lower than its input impedance; said first, second and third amplifying means each comprising at least one MOS transistor; first feedback means connected directly between the output and input of the second amplifying means and carrying out a phase-compensating function; and second feedback means connected between the output of the third amplifying means and the input of the second amplifying means and carrying out a phase compensating function.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
136 words
An operational amplifier which comprises: first amplifying means; second amplifying means connected to the output of the first amplifying means and carrying out inverting amplification; third amplifying means connected to the output of the second amplifying means and carrying out noninverting amplification with a gain of substantially 1, said third amplifying means including a source follower circuit and being formed of a noninverting amplifier whose output impedance is lower than its input impedance; said first, second and third amplifying means each comprising at least one MOS transistor; first feedback means connected directly between the output and input of the second amplifying means and carrying out a phase-compensating function; and second feedback means connected between the output of the third amplifying means and the input of the second amplifying means and carrying out a phase compensating function.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
The operational amplifier according to claim 1, wherein the first and second feedback means are each formed of a phase-compensating capacitive element.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
The operational amplifier according to claim 2, wherein a resistive element is connected in series to the phase-compensating capacitive elements of the first and second feedback means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
34 words
The operational amplifier according to claim 2, wherein a noninverting amplifier having a gain of substantially 1 is connected to the inputs of the phase-compensating capacitive elements of the first and second feedback means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
