Abstract

An amplifier comprises a biasing unit, an amplifying unit and a Schmitt trigger. The biasing unit is configured to generate a bias current which is independent of the power supply, so as to increase power supply rejection ratio. The amplifying unit is connected to the biasing unit and configured to receive an input voltage and generate an amplified voltage based on the biasing current. The Schmitt trigger is connected to the amplifier and configured to generate and output a modified voltage.
