ABSTRACT:
An improved current mode driver circuit uses N-type transistors in current mirrors to achieve higher speed operation at lower cost. A pair of matched low frequency P-type transistors provide a small amount of current to each side of the differential amplifier which comprise of only N-type transistors in a current mirror connection to amplify the current supplied thereto.
