ABSTRACT:
An amplifier circuit and structure having high input impedance and having a return path for conducting amplifier DC leakage current. A common diode structure forms the return path and includes two diodes connected in series and connected in opposite conduction directions. The diode having a forward conduction direction which is in the opposite direction of the leakage current is provided with a reverse saturation current which is substantially greater than the leakage current of the amplifier. The amplifier is typically a P channel or N channel field effect transistor (FET) and the double diode structure is typically an NPN or PNP transistor.
