Abstract :
This paper presents a new configuration for linear MOS voltage-to-current converters (transconductors). The proposed circuit combines two previously reported linearization methods. The novel topology exhibits very good linearity for both balanced and unbalanced inputs. The linearity is preserved during the tuning process for a moderate range of transconductance values
