Abstract
This invention concerns, in a current-controlled amplifier circuit, the combination of output amplifier means having an input conductor and having an output conductor for converting a signal at the input conductor of the output amplifier means to a current amplified signal, feedback means connected between the output and input conductors of the output amplifier means and including a differential pair of semiconductors having a control current output, for presenting a signal at the input conductor of the output amplifier means which is the product of an input signal to the amplifier circuit and the ratio of a reference current to the control current and for substantially eliminating dc input at the input conductor of the output amplifier means and setting the quiescent currents of the semiconductors of the differential pair substantially equal.
