Abstract
An amplifier circuit (10) receives a differential input signal and provides an amplified differential signal. A converter circuit (14) is responsive to the amplified differential signal and provides a single-ended signal. An output stage (16) is responsive to the single-ended signal for providing an output signal of the amplifier circuit. The output stage provides bias cancellation for the single-ended signal by injecting a current equal to the bias requirement of the input transistors (20, 38). The bias cancellation maintains a high input impedance and high gain and output drive for the output stage.
