Abstract:
A voltage-to-current converter that reduces third harmonic distortion. An amplifier includes an input stage. The input stage includes a first voltage-to-current conversion stage and a second voltage-to-current conversion stage. The first voltage-to-current conversion stage is configured to provide an input to output gain with compressive nonlinearity. The second voltage-to-current stage is cascaded with the first voltage-to-current conversion stage. An input of the second voltage-to-current stage is connected to an output of the first voltage-to-current conversion stage. The second voltage-to-current conversion stage is configured to provide an input to output gain with expansive nonlinearity.
