Abstract

The amplifier stage of the invention has a first and a second differential amplifier branch and a first and a second impedance-burdened branch. The first impedance-burdened branch is connected in parallel with the input impedance of the first differential amplifier branch, and the second impedance-burdened branch is connected in parallel with the input impedance of the second differential amplifier branch. As a result, it is possible to maintain the amplifier parameters largely constant.
