Abstract
A gate circuit for analog signals composed of field effect transistors is provided. The analog signal is switched on and off by variation of the conductance of the FETs. Distortion of the signal is a crucial problem for such circuits, which is overcome by detecting the voltages at both the source and drain sides of the switching transistor which controls the signals to be on and off, and by feeding the voltages back to the gate of the switching transistor. The inner resistance of the switching transistor when it is in the on state is reduced, and becomes symmetric at both sides of V.sub.DS0. As a result the second order distortion is greatly reduced.
