US Patent 7400172 Miller capacitance tolerant buffer element

A buffer includes a source follower module and a pull-up/pull-down module that is connected to the source follower module. An output signal at the output terminal of the source follower module follows an input signal at the input terminal with a predetermined delay, independent of the Miller capacitance. The pull-up/pull-down module pulls the output of source follower to supply/ground rail.
