Abstract
An amplifier includes a supply voltage terminal and a reference voltage terminal and an input terminal. An amplifier arrangement includes a first and second branch coupled between the supply and reference voltage terminals, and one or more transistors configured to provide current flow through each of the branches based on the input signal at the input terminal. A first output terminal is coupled to the first branch to provide a first output signal based on the current flow therethrough. A second output terminal is coupled to the second branch to provide a second output signal based on the current flow therethrough. An impedance-modifying circuit is coupled to the second output terminal to provide a voltage variation in the second output signal in response to the input signal greater than a voltage variation in the first output signal in response to the input signal.
