Design of differential amplifier with negative impedance compensation

Design of differential amplifier with high gain accuracy and high linearity is presented in the paper. The amplifier design is based on the negative impedance compensation technique reported by the authors in [1]. A negative impedance with high precision, low sensitivity, wide input signal range and simple structure is used for the compensation of differential amplifier. Analysis and simulation results show that gain accuracy and linearity can be improved significantly with the negative impedance compensation

Stability analysis of the amplifier with negative impedance compensation

A novel amplifier design technique based on negative impedance compensation has been proposed in our recent paper. In this paper, we investigate the stability of this amplifier system. The parameter space approach has been used to determine system parameters in the negative impedance circuit such that the stability of the amplifier system can be guaranteed in a certain region represented by those parameters. The simulation results have demonstrated that stable circuit behavior for the amplifier can be achieved
