Abstract
A transistor circuit comprising a first differential amplifier which is composed of a differential pair and a current mirror. The transistor circuit further comprises a second differential amplifier which measures a differential offset voltage in the first differential amplifier and reduces this offset voltage by means of common mode current feedback. The transistor circuit thus provides a stable amplifier having a high speed and a low offset voltage which can be used advantageously in a logic output buffer so that, for example, an ECL output buffer can be realized in CMOS.
