Abstract :
The distortion characteristics of single-ended and differential current-feedback bipolar transistor amplifiers are investigated in detail. Expressions for the 2nd through 5th-order harmonic distortion in both types of amplifiers, as well as the 3rd-and 5th-order intermodulation distortion in a differential pair, are derived in terms of the transistor forward transconductance and net effective emitter degeneration resistance.
