In one embodiment, a method is provided for reducing output current oscillations of a driver provided with i) a current sensing circuit that senses excessive current draws of an output stage of the driver, and ii) a feedback control circuit that reduces the excessive current draws. In accordance with the method, an output of the current sensing circuit is coupled to an input of a common source amplifier with source degeneration. The output of the common source amplifier is coupled to a node between an input stage and an amplification stage of the driver. The common source amplifier is configured to be activated when the current sensing circuit senses an excessive current draw of the output stage, at which time the feedback control circuit is also activated. Related apparatus is also disclosed.
