An amplifier may include multiple transistors with two transistors having their gates tied together via a common connection. The amplifier may utilize a local common mode feedback resistor as part of the amplifier. The local common mode feedback resistor may be coupled between the common connection and respective terminals of two transistors of multiple transistors. The local common mode feedback resistor may include a group of resistors coupled in series. The local common mode feedback resistor may also include a metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) resistor coupled in parallel with one or more of the first group of resistors. In the local common mode feedback, the first MOS resistor provides different levels of resistance to different process corners to reduce overshoot when the amplifier is enabled.
