An apparatus and method for biasing the gain stage of an amplifier which may result in high signal gain, stable quiescent bias, and which controls the current in the quiescent state. A bias reference signal is coupled to the base of a gain stage transistor, and a bias feedback signal is coupled to adjust the bias reference signal based on the bias current of the gain stage transistor. The bias reference signal can be coupled to an input signal that is input to the base of the gain stage transistor. A compensation element can be coupled to the base of the gain stage transistor to control the time response of the gain stage transistor.
