Various systems and methods for signal amplification are disclosed. For example, some embodiments of the present invention provide differential amplifiers that include dual transconductance characteristics. Such amplifiers include two dual input operational amplifiers that each include two input sets. A first of the input sets exhibits a first transconductance and a second of the input sets exhibits a second transconductance. The two dual input operational amplifiers are configured such that to a common mode signal, the amplifier exhibits an overall transconductance that is the difference between the first transconductance and the second transconductance. In contrast, to a differential signal, the overall transconductance is the sum of the first transconductance and the second transconductance.
