Abstract :
In this paper, an economic approach to the linearization of the differential transconductors is proposed and compared with the source degeneration approach used to linearize the conventional differential pairs. The application of the resulted transconductor as a negative resistor is presented. The linearity, noise, and power performances are simulated, discussed, and compared with the conventional differential pair´s.
