Broad-band differential amplifier with double reverse feed-back of common mode

Claim 1

Differential amplifier comprising a differential stage and a follower stage, the differential stage comprising a common branch connected between a first supply terminal and the junction point of two differential branches connected furthermore to a second supply terminal, the common branch comprising two transistors in parallel the gates of which are separately controlled, and each differential branch comprising an input transistor T1, T2 in series with a load transistor, the differential stage having two inputs E1, E2, respectively connected to the gates of the input transistors T1, T2 of the differential branches, and two outputs that are the junction points of the input transistors with the load transistors T3, T4 the first output S1 being connected to the input of the follower stage T6, T7 and the output of the follower stage constituting the output of the amplifier, wherein there are provided two common mode feed-back branches each constituted by a follower stage connected between a respective output S1, S2 of the differential stage and the gate of a respective transistor T5, T10 of the common branch, a capacitor C2 being connected between the second output of the differential stage and the second supply terminal B, so that that equivalent capacitance between this second output and the second supply terminal is substantially greater than the equivalent capacitance between the first output S1 and the second supply terminal B.
