Abstract

A feedback amplifier having an improved feedback network including two cross coupled switches that isolate the amplifier from extraneous undesired electrical signals present in a system or network when the amplifier is turned off (i.e., in an off-state). The cross coupled switches interconnect two feedback paths of a feedback network to enable out-of-phase differential signals to be summed and effectively canceled. Further, the feedback amplifier provides on-stage advantages to enable different amplifier characteristics and parameter to be selectively engaged by turning on or turning off certain feedback networks.
