Amplifier circuits and methods are implemented using a variety of different embodiments. According to one such embodiment, a method is implemented using a field-effect transistor (FET) having a gate node, a source node and a drain node. A first circuit state is implemented in which the gate node, the source node and the drain node are connected to inputs that generate a stored charge at the gate node, the amount of stored charge at the gate node being responsive to a first voltage level. A second circuit state is implemented in which the drain node is connected to a voltage source, the source node is connected to a load, and while charge at the gate node is preserved, current between the drain node to the source node drives a voltage level of the load to a proportionally amplified version of the first voltage level.
