    摘要: An operational amplifier includes two differential amplifiers, one of which is driven directly while the other is driven via two potential shifting members. Using a control stage, currents are derived from common differential current output nodes of the differential amplifiers, and are mirrored as a current difference on an output of the operational amplifier. A larger input and output driving range is thus obtained, and the operational amplifier is also capable of operating with a low supply voltage. Furthermore, the operational amplifier can be constructed using a relatively simple configuration and also has an output which is suitable for high-impedance switching.

    摘要: A transistor amplifier is described having a first transistor pair, which comprises a first and a second transistor, and having a second transistor pair, which comprises a third and a fourth transistor, in which the transistors of each pair have their emitter electrodes coupled to each other and to an associated constant current source, the first transistor has its base electrode and its collector electrode coupled to the corresponding electrodes of the third transistor, and the second transistor has its base electrode and its collector electrode coupled to the corresponding electrodes of the fourth transistor, the base electrodes of the first and the third transistor, on the one hand, and the base electrodes of the second and the fourth transistor, on the other hand, being arranged to receive an input signal and an output signal being derivable from the collector electrodes of the transistors, and having a first, a second, a third and a fourth negative-feedback circuit each included in the coupling to the associated constant current source. In an amplifier of this type a high linearity and a low noise level are to be obtained with a circuit of low complexity. In accordance with the invention this is basically achieved in that the first and the fourth negative-feedback circuit each comprise a series arrangement of a plurality of n diode elements and the second and the third negative-feedback circuit each comprise a series arrangement of a plurality of n−1 diode elements, the last-mentioned arrangements being each connected to an input branch of a current mirror circuit. These current mirror circuits comprise output branches whose currents are fed at least partly, as a result of which their noise components do not affect the output signals of the transistor amplifier.

    摘要: A circuit arrangement includes a first differential amplifier stage with two amplifier members whose main current paths are coupled to one another and, via a first reference current source, to a first reference potential, and are coupled to a respective output terminal as well as, via a respective output impedance, to a second reference potential, and whose control terminals can be supplied with a first control signal, an output signal being available at the output terminals. At least one further differential amplifier stage is provided, each of which includes two further amplifier members whose main current paths are coupled to one another and, via a respective further reference current source, to the first reference potential and whose control terminals can be supplied with (a) further control signal(s). Linearization of the transfer characteristic of the circuit arrangement can be achieved while avoiding a loss of gain in that the output impedances are preferably constructed as identical voltage dividers provided with a respective tapping for each further differential amplifier stage, the main current paths of the further differential amplifier stages are connected to each time two pair-wise mutually symmetrical tappings, providing a predetermined division, of the two voltage dividers, the ratio of the instantaneous values of the control signals to one another is predetermined, and the division of the tappings of the voltage dividers and the ratio of the currents supplied by the reference current sources are adjusted to one another in such a manner that output signal components which exhibit a dependency on at least one higher power of the control signals cancel out. This circuit arrangement also offers an improved noise factor.

    摘要: Circuit arrangement for shifting the phase of an input signal, which circuit arrangement consists of two branches whose two output signals are 90° phase-shifted, and use of this phase shifter in a circuit arrangement for suppressing the mirror frequency. The filter systems in the two branches of the phase shifter are implemented in such a way that the phase difference between these two branches is 90°, independent of the frequency of the input signal. In the mirror frequency circuit, a frequency band is amplified or blanked during transmission. The base frequency BF constitutes the center of the frequency band. The amplitude difference is small in the solutions according to the invention. The amplitude difference is improved when the two 90° phase-shifted signals are matched or substantially equalized as regards their amplitude. The matching is performed in that the two signals are rectified and subsequently subtracted from each other. The result is supplied to an integrator whose output signal, together with a reference signal, constitutes the control value. This results in a substantially ideal suppression of the mirror frequency. The circuit arrangement can be used in a radio or television receiver.

    摘要: The invention relates to an anti-demodulator circuit which is fundamentally built up in the same way as a demodulator circuit but, instead of a bandpass filter as generally used in a demodulator, comprises a notch filter which receives an input signal comprising a useful signal and an interference signal, and generates a filtered signal. The notch filter has a center frequency which approximately corresponds to the frequency of the input signal so as to suppress at least a part of the useful signal. The anti-demodulator circuit further comprises a mixer circuit which receives the filtered signal and a phase-shifted input signal and supplies a demodulated output signal which substantially corresponds to the interference signal.The invention can be particularly used in connection with a filtering device for suppressing interference signals based on adjacent channel disturbances in FM radios, in which the bandwidth of the filtering device is controlled in dependence upon the output signal of the anti-demodulator circuit.

    摘要: A differential amplifier includes a first amplifier transistor whose base terminal is coupled to an emitter terminal of a first emitter-follower transistor, a second amplifier transistor whose base terminal is coupled to an emitter terminal of a second emitter-follower transistor, a first emitter impedance across which the emitter terminals of the first and second amplifier transistors are coupled to each other, while base terminals of the emitter-follower transistors can be supplied with a differential voltage for controlling the differential amplifier. In order to enable stable operation and also a characteristic curve that is linear over rather large dynamic ranges, such a differential amplifier according to the invention includes a power transfer circuit by which a first current is supplied to the emitter terminal of the first emitter-follower transistor in a voltage-decoupled manner, which first current has such a predefined proportion to a collector current in a collector terminal of the second amplifier transistor due to the configuration of the first emitter-follower transistor and of the second amplifier transistor that a base-emitter voltage occurring on the first emitter-follower transistor substantially corresponds to a base-emitter voltage occurring on the second amplifier transistor. The power transfer circuit similarly applies a second current to the emitter terminal of the second emitter-follower transistor in a voltage-decoupled manner.
