ABSTRACT:
A transconductance circuit having a feedback element for maintaining constant potential differences at a differential amplifier, which in turn allows an intermediate current signal to flow through a resistive load directly proportional to an input voltage signal. The intermediate current signal is amplified through an amplifying stage to a sub-harmonic stage.
