Abstract: An integrated circuit transconductor stage which suppresses the dependence on temperature and production process variables of a differential transconductor stage. A negative feedback relation is used, where the output of the transconductor stage is connected to an additional current generator (which is referenced to a precision external resistor), to a capacitor, and also to the gate of a PMOS transistor which sources current to a polarization stage, which in turn sources current to the transconductor stage, or to multiple transconductor stages.

Abstract: A circuit device for neutralizing thermal drift in a transconductor differential stage using a first circuit portion which corresponds structurally to the transconductor differential stage and has a pair of MOS input transistors defining a transconductance value which is substantially proportional to that of the transconductor differential stage, a pair of bipolar output transistors coupled to the MOS input transistors in a cascode configuration, and a second circuit portion being supplied a current from an output of the first differential portion to thereby output a current to be passed to the transconductor differential stage. The value of the output current is inversely proportional to temperature-dependent parameters of the transconductance.
