Abstract

A current-mode amplifier including an input stage, a feedback circuit and an output stage is provided. The input stage has an input terminal for receiving an input current of the current-mode amplifier. The input stage generates a corresponding inner current in accordance with the input current and a feedback current. The feedback circuit is connected to the input stage. The feedback circuit generates the corresponding feedback current in accordance with the inner current of the input stage. An input terminal of the output stage is connected to an output terminal of the input stage. An output terminal of the output stage serves as an output terminal of the current-mode amplifier.
