Abstract
An amplifier and a method for converting a single ended signal to an amplified differential signal. The amplifier comprises an input configured to receive a single ended signal, a differential amplifier that outputs an amplified differential signal based on the single ended signal, and a compensator coupled to the differential amplifier and configured to inject an adjusted distortion compensating signal based on the even order distortion signal to compensate for a distortion in the amplified differential signal. The method comprises receiving a single ended signal, converting the single ended signal to an amplified differential signal, and generating a distortion compensating signal to substantially cancel an even order distortion signal injected to the differential signal by the converting.
