Abstract
An amplifier circuit arrangement comprises first and second long-tailed pairs of transistors each including an inductor to provide a constant current source for their respective transistor pair. Each of the transistors of the pairs is provided with a bias current on its base electrode. A differential input signal is applied between the base electrode of one transistor, via a dc blocking capacitor and an input terminal, and the base electrode of another transistor, via a dc blocking capacitor and an another input terminal. The collector electrodes of two of the transistors are connected together and to an output terminal. The collector electrodes of the other two transistors similarly are connected together and to the other output terminal. A differential output signal is provided between the output terminals. This connection of the collectors of the transistors, which can be described as parallel connection, provides summation of the differential signals provided by the transistor pairs.
