Abstract
Amplifier systems and methods are provided which closely approximate a constant output impedance and a constant quiescent output signal during forward and reverse modes of operation. The systems can be realized with small, inexpensive components that are compatible with integrated-circuit fabrication processes. A system embodiment includes a signal amplifier, a feedback path that is coupled across at least part of the signal amplifier to reduce its impedance, a reverse amplifier which is coupled to drive at least a feedback portion of the feedback path and a signal generator which controls operational timing of the signal amplifier and reverse amplifier. Another system embodiment includes an error-current canceler that cancels error currents of the signal amplifier with substantially equal and opposite correction currents.
