Patent attributes
A circuit that includes a Darlington transistor pair having an input transistor and an output transistor configured to generate an output signal at an output node in response to an input signal received through an input node is disclosed. The circuit has a feedback coupling network coupled between the output node and the input node for feeding back to the input node a portion of an amplified version of the input signal that passes through the input transistor. The circuit further includes a bias feedback network that includes a bias transistor and a resistive network that consists of only resistive elements such that no inductors and no capacitors are provided within the bias feedback network.
