Abstract
A two stage amplifier with an inter-stage matching network constituted of a first and a second transistor forming a differential first stage, a third and a fourth transistor forming a differential second stage, an on-chip connection path connecting the emitters of the first and second transistor to the emitters of the third and fourth transistors, a first transformation network and a second transformation network. A collector of the first transistor is operatively connected to a base of the third transistor by the first transformation network and a collector of the second transistor is operatively connected to a base of the fourth transistor by the second transformation network. At least one resistor is provided in the on-chip connection path to stabilize the input of the third and fourth transistors.
