Abstract
In a method and an arrangement for adapting, from a DC point of view, the signal input of a first circuit, lying at a first DC voltage, to the signal output of at least one second circuit, lying at a second DC voltage, the signal input terminal is connected to the respective signal output terminal of the respective second circuit via a respective first resistance, whereby first DC currents will be allowed to flow through the respective first resistance. The signal input is adapted to be virtually short-circuited to a source for the first DC voltage, which is of a predetermined value, separate from zero. The first circuit is adapted to internally generate a DC cancellation current and bring it to flow in the signal input. The signal input is to be connected to ground via a selectable, second resistance, whereby a second DC current will flow through the second resistance. This second resistance is to be selected in such a manner that the sum of the DC cancellation current, the first DC currents, and the second DC current, equals zero.
