ABSTRACT:
A current amplifier provides high gain and low output voltage. Differential input currents of the current amplifier are sunk by first and second transistors through a first resistor network. Any common mode variation in the input currents is detected by first and second emitter-follower transistors which control the bases of the first and second transistors, respectively, through a resistor divider network such that the first and second transistors conduct the common mode variation in the input currents and maintain the average value of the output voltages of the emitter-follower transistors substantially constant. An output differential amplifier is also responsive to the voltage difference between the emitter-follower transistors and the center tap of the resistor divider for providing constant output currents. The emitters of the output differential transistors return to ground through a second resistor network which enables the output voltage of the current amplifier to operate at a low value.
