ABSTRACT:
In a fully differential amplifier so configured that an operating point potential of positive and negative output terminals of a differential amplifier having an active load is set by a common-mode feedback circuit, the common-mode feedback circuit includes a first differential pair receiving a reference potential given from an external and a positive output potential of the differential amplifier, a second differential pair receiving the reference potential and a negative output potential of the differential amplifier, and a sum current feedback device for giving a sum current of output currents of the first and second differential pairs to a bias current for the active load of the differential amplifier. With this arrangement, a difference between a common-mode output potential of the differential amplifier and the reference potential is fed back to the differential amplifier in the form of the sum current, so as to control to equalize the common-mode output potential of the differential amplifier with the reference potential.
