Claims
- 1. An amplifier comprising:a first pair of active devices having common terminals thereof coupled together, wherein a control terminals of first and second devices of the first pair respectively form non-inverting and inverting first type input ports, output terminals thereof respectively forming first and second first type output ports a second pair of active devices having common terminals thereof coupled together, an output terminal of a second device of the second pair forming a non-inverting second type output port; and a third pair of active devices having common terminals thereof coupled together, an output terminal of a first device of the third pair forming an inverting second type output port and coupled, at least indirectly, to the output terminal of the second device of the second pair of active devices wherein a each control terminal of the first and second devices of the second and third pairs forms a separate second type input port and (ii) is configured for coupling to at least one of the output terminals associated with the first pair of active devices.
- 2. The amplifier of claim 1, wherein the active devices are transistors.
- 3. The amplifier of claim 2, wherein the control terminal, the output terminal, and the common terminal are respectively a gate, a drain, and a source.
