Abstract

Current-controlled CMOS (C3MOS) wideband input data amplifier for reduced differential and common-mode reflection. Impedance matching and bandwidth extension provides desired gain at higher frequencies and may be achieved at the interface between silicon and package and/or circuit board within various integrated circuits that may be employed within communication devices. In some instances, a differential transistor pair is employed that also includes Miller capacitors coupled between the gate of one transistor of the differential transistor pair to the drain of the other transistor of the differential transistor pair. This can also include series load connected resistors and inductors coupled between the respective drains of the transistors of the differential transistor pair to a power supply voltage. Also, series connected input inductors may also couple to the gates of the transistors of the differential transistor pair.
