  • Abstract
    Sometimes a need arises to have two complementary currents and for this purpose one usually employs a differential pair. However, the conventional arrangement has the disadvantages of nonlinear control of the tail current switching and a small range of the control voltage. The author presents a circuit which eliminates this deficiency
