Abstract

An amplifier (40) includes a biasing element (59) which establishes a quiescent current in two transistors (62, 72). An input voltage signal is converted to an input current signal by a voltage to current converting element (65). The input current signal differentially modulates the currents in the two transistors (62, 72). The differentially modulated currents generates differentially modulated voltages across two diodes (76, 78). Two buffers (83, 87) generates a differential output voltage signal at two output terminals (77, 79) of the amplifier (40) by shifting the differentially modulated voltages across the two diodes (76, 78). The output signal of the amplifier (40) has a low DC offset. The gain of the amplifier (40) is adjusted by adjusting the quiescent current in the two transistors (62, 72).
