    • An integrated circuit photodetector includes a transimpedance amplifier including a differential amplifier stage with PNP emitter-coupled transistors and a PNP input transistor which are biased only by base currents of the emitter-coupled transistors, to achieve low input bias current. Low noise operation is achieved by bypass capacitors coupled between the bases and emitters of the input transistors, respectively. A constant current source supplies a current which develops a small pedestal voltage across a resistor to bias the non-inverting input of the transimpedance amplifier so as to avoid nonlinear amplification of low level light signals. A positively biased N-type guard tub surrounds the photodetector, which is formed in a junction-isolated N region on a P substrate, to collect electrons generated in the substrate by deep-penetrating IR light to prevent them from causing amplification errors. In one embodiment, a feedback network includes a resistor connected between the output of a buffer driven by the transimpedance amplifier and an inverting input thereof, and a capacitor connected between the output and inverting input of the transimpedance amplifier to provide low noise, fast settling operation.

    • A circuit for reducing input offset error and improving gain switching speed in a programmable gain amplifier includes a level shifting buffer that senses a signal on a common mode conductor in a differential input stage of an operational amplifier, and shifts the level of that signal up to the level corresponding to a level of an input signal applied to a non-inverting input of the operational amplifier. If a gain select signal is at a first logic level, the voltage produced by the buffer is applied to a gate electrode of one of a plurality of gain switching JFETs coupling a gain network to the inverting input of the operational amplifier, turning that JFET on. If the gain select signal is at a second logic level, the output of the buffer is isolated from the gain switching JFET and a turn off voltage is applied to the gate of the gain switching JFET.

    • A wideband integrated circuit amplifier includes a pair of current mirror circuits sensing emitter currents of NPN and PNP transistors in the amplifier output stage. A pair of current mirror circuits divide the emitter currents, respectively, by a factor of 20. The current mirror output currents are summed, current splitter directs approximately 1/20 of the summed mirror currents through a transistor, the collector of which is coupled to the gate electrode of a field effect input transistor of a bias control circuit, to produce a scaled down feedback current. A high impedance current source is connected to the collector of the transistor. The bias circuit adjusts the DC bias voltage applied between the base electrodes of the transistors to cause the scaled down feedback current to equal the constant current. A very small compensation capacitor produces a low frequency pole that prevents the bias circuit from interfering with high frequency performance characteristics of a wide band amplifier.
