Abstract
An amplifier circuit has a variable gain amplifier including an input receiving an input signal and an open-conduction output, and an output stage including an input coupled to the open-conduction output of the variable gain amplifier and an output providing an output signal of the amplifier circuit. The variable gain amplifier has a first transistor and second transistor each having a control input receiving the input signal. A third transistor has a control terminal receiving a control signal and a first conduction terminal coupled to a first conduction terminal of the first transistor and a second conduction terminal being a first terminal of the open-conduction output. A fourth transistor has a control terminal receiving the control signal and a first conduction terminal coupled to a first conduction terminal of the second transistor and a second conduction terminal being a second terminal of the open-conduction output.
