Patent number: 4540951Abstract: A push-pull amplifer circuit using bipolar transistors in which non-linear distortion caused by the base-emitter voltages of the amplifying transistors of the circuit is eliminated without the use of negative AC feedback and in which variations in a DC output level at the output terminal of the amplifier are detected and fed back to the input side of the amplifier whereby the stability of the circuit at very low frequencies is remarkably improved. A first amplifier stage includes a first transistor having a base to which an input signal is applied and a second transistor the base of which is coupled to an output of the first transistor with the second transistor being of the opposite conductivity type of the first transistor. A current mirror circuit supplies currents to the first and second transistors with the currents thus supplied having a constant ratio. A second amplifying stage is provided having the same construction.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 1983Date of Patent: September 10, 1985Assignee: Pioneer Electronic CorporationInventors: Akio Ozawa, Susumu Sueyoshi, Keishi Sato, Kikuo Ishikawa, Kiyomi Yatsuhashi, Satoshi Ishii, Masamichi Yumino

Patent number: 4420725Abstract: A low-noise wide-band bipolar transistor amplifier in which distortion caused by non-linear transistor operating characteristics is substantially eliminated. An input signal is coupled to the base of a first transistor connected in an emitter follower configuration with the signal formed at the emitter of the first transistor coupled to the base of a second transistor. Currents are supplied to the first and second transistors by a current mirror circuit in such a manner that a ratio of the current supplied to the first transistor to the current supplied to the second transistor is made constant. An output signal is produced in response to current variations in a transistor of the current mirror circuit which supplies current to the second transistor.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 1980Date of Patent: December 13, 1983Assignee: Pioneer Electronic CorporationInventors: Susumu Sueyoshi, Kikuo Ishikawa

Patent number: 4356454Abstract: An equalizer amplifier in which non-linear distortion is substantially eliminated. An input signal is applied to the base of a first transistor the output of which is applied to the base of a second transistor of the opposite conductivity type to the first transistor. Currents are supplied to the first and second transistors in a constant ration. The output from the circuit is provided in response to current flowing in one of the first and second transistors. At least one of the amplifier gain determining elements has a reactance component which varies depending on frequency.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 1980Date of Patent: October 26, 1982Assignee: Pioneer Electronic CorporationInventors: Susumu Sueyoshi, Kikuo Ishikawa

Patent number: 4356455Abstract: An amplifier circuit in which the non-linear distortion of the amplifier transistors caused by non-linear base-emitter input and output characteristics is eliminated without the use of negative feedback. A first transistor and a second transistor of opposite conductivity type are coupled with the output of the first transistor connected to the base of the second transistor and with an input signal applied to the base of the first transistor. Currents are applied to the first and second transistors, such as with the current mirror circuit, in such a manner that the ratio of the currents is a predetermined constant value. Bias voltages are applied to the circuit such that the ratio of the collector-emitter voltage of the first transistor to the collector-emitter voltage of the second transistor is the reciprocal of the predetermined constant value.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 1980Date of Patent: October 26, 1982Assignee: Pioneer Electronic CorporationInventors: Akio Ozawa, Susumu Sueyoshi, Keishi Saito, Kikuo Ishikawa, Kiyomi Yatsuhashi, Satoshi Ishii, Masamichi Yumino

Patent number: 4356453Abstract: A grounded-source field-effect transistor amplifier circuit in which a constant current source is coupled to the source resistor to drain a current therethrough in addition to the normal source current with the amount of current chosen to equalize characteristics among different transistors. In a preferred application, two such transistors are coupled as a complementary pair with their drains connected to the inputs of a push-pull output stage. A variable resistor may be connected between the sources with its wiper connected to ground. A feedback resistor may be coupled between the output of the push-pull stage and the wiper of the variable resistor.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 1980Date of Patent: October 26, 1982Assignee: Pioneer Electronic CorporationInventor: Susumu Sueyoshi

Patent number: 4237426Abstract: A transistor amplifier having a first amplifier circuit with a first transistor having applied to its control electrode an input voltage. The ratio of the output voltage of the first transistor to the input voltage is approximately one.
