Abstract

An output stage includes a system input and a system output, a first transistor having a first control input and a first controlled path, and a second transistor having a second control input and a second controlled path. The second controlled path is in series with the first controlled path and the system output. A first current-controlled voltage source has an input that is electrically connected to the system input. The first current-controlled voltage source has an output that is electrically connected to the first control input of the first transistor. A second current-controlled voltage source has an input that is electrically connected to the system input. The second current-controlled voltage source has an output that is electrically connected to the second control input of the second transistor.
