ABSTRACT:
A differential amplifier stage includes one active load circuit connected to a pair of cross-coupled transistors that produce a differential signal. The active load circuit controls the rise time of the differential signal. The differential amplifier stage also includes another active load circuit connected to the pair of cross-coupled transistors. The second active load circuit controls the fall time of the differential signal.
