Abstract
An amplifier circuit includes a primary differential amplifier circuit connected to receive a differential input and provide a primary differential output with a first non-linearity. A secondary differential amplifier circuit is connected to receive the differential input. The secondary differential amplifier circuit is configured to generate a secondary differential output with a second non-linearity. The secondary differential output and the primary differential output are coupled together with opposing polarities such that the second non-linearity cancels out at least the first non-linearity.
