Abstract
A differential input circuit (FIG.A) is disclosed. The circuit includes a first input terminal (drain of) and a second input terminal (drain of). A first input transistor () has a first control terminal and has a current path coupled to the first input terminal. A second input transistor () has a second control terminal and has a current path coupled to the second input terminal. A third transistor () has a third control terminal and has a current path between a first differential input terminal (Vin+) and the first control terminal. A fourth transistor () has a fourth control terminal and has a current path between a second differential input terminal (Vin−) and the second control terminal.
