ABSTRACT:
A signal amplifier is supplied with input signals at its base electrode and also is supplied at its emitter with quiescent operating current from a current source. Amplified output signals developed at the collector of the amplifier are coupled to a transistor-diode current splitter. The relative division of current in the splitter is controlled by coupling a variable direct current supply to the diode. The latter supply comprises a source of direct voltage, a variable, resistive voltage divider coupled across the voltage source, and the combination of a voltage follower stage and a series resistor coupled between the resistive divider and the diode. Gain controlled push-pull output signals may be provided by differentially coupling a second amplifier device to the first and coupling the output of a second current splitter to the second amplifier. The second current splitter is then also controlled by the same current source as the first.
