ABSTRACT:
A feedback element for a two beam smart pixel receiver having at least one pair of electron devices of opposite electrical conductivity type, such as an NFET and a PFET, with input electrodes electrically connected and output electrodes electrically connected. The devices of a pair have opposing differential resistance characteristics in response to the same input signal so that the resistances of the devices of the pair add to become more linear.
