An amplifier includes a P-type transistor and an N-type transistor that are connected in series, an operation amplifier, a transformer, and a variable attenuator. In the operation amplifier, an output terminal is coupled to a gate side of one of the P-type transistor and the N-type transistor, one of an inverting input terminal and a non-inverting input terminal is coupled to drain sides of both of the P-type transistor and the N-type transistor, and a reference voltage is to be applied to the other of the inverting input terminal and the non-inverting input terminal. In the transformer, a primary coil is coupled to a source side of one of the P-type transistor and the N-type transistor. The variable attenuator is provided between a secondary coil and gate terminals of both of the N-type transistor and the P-type transistor.
