    Abstract: In a logarithmic linear variable gain CMOS amplifier comprising a differential input pair of transistors with diode-connected load transistors, a second differential pair of transistors sharing the same diode-connected load transistors, a pair of current mirrors for programmably injecting respective bias currents in the common source modes of said two differential pairs of transistors, generated by a digital-to-analog converter, the groups delay is rendered independent from the gain and linearity inversely proportional to the gain by cross connnecting the control nodes of the second differential pair to the control nodes of the first differential input pair of transistors and by biasing the two differential pair of transistors such that the sum of their respecive bias current is maintained constant.
    Preferably, transistor means connected in parallel to each of said diode-connected load transitors are added for subtracting a constant amount of current from said sum current that would otherwise be flowing through the diode-connected load transistors.
