An embodiment of an amplifier circuit includes a plurality of amplifiers connected between input and output terminals to form at least partially parallel amplification paths between the terminals. A first plurality of the amplification paths include series-connected pluralities of the amplifiers and share a common first series-connected amplifier, and a second plurality of the amplification paths have different first amplifiers. Optionally, a third plurality of the amplification paths include series-connected pluralities of the amplifiers and share a common last series-connected amplifier, and a fourth plurality of the amplification paths have different last amplifiers. Alternatively, a first plurality of the amplification paths include series-connected pluralities of the amplifiers and share a common last series-connected amplifier, and a second plurality of the amplification paths have different last amplifiers. In the alternative embodiment, optionally a third plurality of the amplification paths include series-connected pluralities of the amplifiers and share a common first series-connected amplifier, and a fourth plurality of the amplification paths have different first amplifiers.
