Differential stage particularly for active filters

摘要

Differential stage comprising a high input dynamic range differential circuit formed by first and second transistors whose emitter electrodes are connected together and to a constant current source through respective resistors, their base electrodes having an input signal applied thereto, and their collector electrodes supplying respective collector currents. The stage further comprises a dual-single converter circuit receiving the collector currents at its input and supplying a stage output current, said converter circuit including at least one variable current source and having a conversion factor which varies as a function of the variable source current.
