An analytical criterion has been established for optimizing the small-signal settling time in three-stage amplifiers based on equaling two exponential decays of the step response. By considering slew-rate effects, a useful design strategy for three-stage operational transconductance amplifier is provided. Extensive time-domain simulations on a transistor-level design in a 65-nm CMOS process have confirmed the validity of the proposed approach.
