This letter presents a compact single-stage buffer amplifier designed to drive a wide range of capacitive loads (CL). To further reduce power consumption and silicon area compared to previous single-stage rail-to-rail amplifiers, this letter proposes an asymmetric rail-to-rail class AB output structure. To achieve a high slew rate, the proposed amplifier employs positive feedback loops and a dynamic floating node. A prototype chip successfully drove a wide range of CL, from 250 pF to 15 nF, while achieving a fast transient response. The chip was fabricated using a 0.18-<inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\mu$ </tex-math></inline-formula>m CMOS process.
