Abstract
The present invention discloses a single-ended signals to differential signals converter. In this invention, a first circuit comprising a transistor outputting single-ended signals and a first spiral inductor connected as an inductor for load use that contributes in determining frequency characteristics of a first circuit to either one of output terminals of higher voltage side and lower voltage side of the transistor, and a second circuit comprising a pair of differential input terminals for inputting differential signals and a second spiral inductor that is magnetically coupled with the first spiral inductor, and both ends thereof are connected to the differential input terminals, respectively, are formed within a monolithic integrated circuit.
