Variable gain amplifier includes signal amplifying transistor, and gain control transistors at output and non-output sides. Emitters or sources of gain control transistors at output and non-output sides are connected to collector or drain of signal amplifying transistor. Output load is connected between collector or drain of gain control transistor at output side and power source side. Load is connected between collector or drain of gain control transistor at non-output side and power source side. Output load and load have the same impedance. Negative feedback path is connected between output end of gain control transistor at output side and input end of signal amplifying transistor. Negative feedback path is also connected between output end of gain control transistor at non-output side and input end of signal amplifying transistor. Two negative feedback paths have the same circuit constant. A differential amplifier is formed of a pair of such variable gain amplifiers.
