That picture dosent tell me anything!

Here is something for you to do.
Draw up the ladder stage in the simu machine, 
add some bias and "unbalance the ladder"
what do you get.

Antti, what is it you are trying to prove?
I dont understand the discussion?

The title says: "CEM3328 seems to only have buffers at the end".
Im looking in one of the schemos now and i defenetively  se a
buffer inbetween stages, "IF" and only IF a single trannie
and its base conected to previous charge cap can be said 
to be a buffer! I call that a buffer.

What is the defenition of buffers anywhay?
