Abstract
A feedback circuit is connected between the input electrode of amplifying element of an amplifying circuit of the initial stage and the output electrode of amplifying element of an amplifying circuit of the final stage. The feedback circuit is structured by a serial circuit of a voltage dropping means resulting in almost constant voltage drop regardless of an increase or decrease of current and a feedback resistor, and a bias voltage is supplied, via the feedback circuit, to an input electrode of the amplifying element in the amplifying circuit of the initial stage from an output electrode of the amplifying element in the amplifying circuit of the final stage. Thereby, current dissipation is reduced and signal loss is lowered.
