Common-mode feedback circuit, corresponding signal processing circuit and method

A common-mode feedback circuit includes a transconductor input stage with differential input terminals, and a frequency-compensated gain stage coupled to the transconductor input stage with differential output terminals. The common-mode feedback circuit also includes a feedback loop having a comparator configured to produce a feedback error signal for the transconductor input stage by comparing with a reference a common-mode sensing signal indicative of a common-mode voltage level sensed at the differential output terminals. In addition, the common-mode feedback loop includes a converter for converting the common-mode voltage level sensed at said differential output terminals into a current signal coupled to the comparator.
