Abstract
A capacitance compensation circuit for a current feedback amplifier which compensates for error current created due to a parasitic capacitance C.sub.IN on the negative, or inverting input terminal V.sub.IN. The capacitance compensation circuit includes a capacitor C* connected to the positive input terminal V.sub.IN+ utilized to couple current from V.sub.IN+ to the collectors of emitter follower transistors having bases coupled to V.sub.IN+ and emitters connected to V.sub.IN-.
