A voltage-to-current circuit utilizes an NMOS-input voltage-to-current (V-I) converter and a PMOS-input V-I converter, with both driving a common gate output stage. Each of the V-I converters includes a transconductance amplifier and a current mirror. The common gate output stage includes two series connected complementary pairs of transistors. One complementary pair drives the output, and the other complementary pair biases the first. The V-I circuit can be utilized as part of a phase detector, which is in turn can be utilized as part of a phase lock loop or a delay lock loop.
