ABSTRACT:
A differential amplifier receiving a first input signal and a second input signal, respectively, and amplifying voltage difference between the first and second input signals to output an output signal includes a first source follower circuit receiving an external data signal as the first input signal, and having an output node; a second source following circuit having a constant current source FET and receiving a reference voltage as the second input signal; and a bias circuit providing a signal having the same phase as the data signal from the output node of the first source follower circuit and inputting that signal to a gate terminal of the constant current source FET of the second source follower circuit. By providing an input interface circuit connected to an external signal source and producing a phase inversion signal from an input data signal in a differential amplifier or in a first stage differential amplifier connected to other amplifiers in multiple stages, the differential gain can be improved to a value approximately equal to that obtained when differential inputs are supplied.
