JAJS854E May 1999 – December 2024 LM6172
PRODUCTION DATA
The class AB input stage in LM6172 is fully symmetrical and has a similar slewing characteristic to the current feedback amplifiers. In the functional block diagram of Section 6.2, Q1 through Q4 form the equivalent of the current feedback input buffer, RE the equivalent of the feedback resistor, and stage A buffers the inverting input. The triple-buffered output stage isolates the gain stage from the load to provide low output impedance.
