摘要: A differential amplifier in the form of a Gilbert gain cell is controlled by a pair of input currents applied to a pair of differentially coupled transistor pairs. A digital signal is generated and input into a CMOS digital-to-analog converter (DAC). The DAC outputs a pair of currents on conductors which are maintained at virtual ground by the use of a current mirror and an operational amplifier. The control signals applied to the differentially coupled transistor pairs are generated as base currents of transistors conducting the DAC output currents.
