Abstract
A system includes a weighting element, a transconductance circuit, a feedback loop, and an auxiliary loop. In some implementations, the transconductance circuit may accept an input and provide a first portion of an output for amplification at a variable amplification level to generate an amplifier output. The feedback loop may provide a portion of the amplifier output as a first feedback to the input. The first feedback may be associated with an impedance that may vary with the amplification level. The auxiliary loop may provide a second feedback to the input to reduce the dependence of the impedance on the amplification level.
