A four quadrant analog multiplier circuit including first to third squaring circuits 1 to 3 each of which is composed of first and second differential circuits each of which is formed of first and second MOS transistors M1 and M2, M3 and M4, M5 and M6, M7 and M8, M9 and M10, and M11 and M12. A gate width-to-length ratio W2/L2 of the second MOS transistor M2 is larger than a gate width-to-length ratio W1/L1 of the first MOS transistor M1. A gate of the first MOS transistor M1, M5 and M9 of each first differential circuit is connected to a gate of the second MOS transistor M4, M8 and M12 of the corresponding second differential circuit. A gate of the second MOS transistor M2, M6 and M10 of each first differential circuit is connected to a gate of the first MOS transistor M3, M7 and M11 of the corresponding second differential circuit. The gates of the MOS transistors M1 and M9 are connected in common to receive a first input signal V1, and the gates of the MOS transistors M5 and M11 are connected in common to receive a second input signal V1. Drains of the MOS transistors M1, M3, M5, M7, M10, and M12 are connected in common to a first output current terminal, and drains of the MOS transistors M2, M4, M6, M8, M9, and M11 are corrected in common to a second output current terminal. A differential current between the first and second output current terminals is indicative of a product of the input signals V1 and V2. <IMAGE> |
