The bipolar junction transistor (BJT)-pair emitter-coupled differential-amplifier circuit is a familiar amplifier stage in the repertoire of analog designers, but has an interesting complication. This ...

Solid-state device technologies, which are available to the amplifier designer, fall, broadly, into three categories: bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and junction diodes; junction field effect ...
