A circuit maintains the quiescent collector current of an output transistor amplifier constant by sensing the voltage developed across a resistor connected in series with the output transistor's collector and, using a differential amplifier, produces a first signal representative thereof which is sampled and held by a circuit controlled by a zero voltage crossing detector sensitive to the amplifier output voltage. The sampled and held signal is inverted and integrated with respect to an adjustable reference voltage to produce a second signal. The second signal controls the current passed by a transistor connected in a voltage divider network supplying the base bias voltage to the output transistor.
