Abstract: In an analog multiplier of the present invention, in an input portion for feeding a differential current to the common emitter of each of a first and a second differential pair, the differential current is turned back by a current mirror circuit. This allows transistors limiting an input range to operate over a broad range in the forward active region of the collector potential. As a result, the multiplier achieves a broad input range. Further, the base potentials of transistors limiting an output range are lowered by emitter followers. Therefore, such transistors can operate over a broad range in the forward active region of the collector potential, increasing an output range.
