Patent attributes
A converting circuit for converting differential signals to a single-ended signal. The converting circuit comprises a cascode amplifier comprising a first transistor and a second transistor, wherein the first transistor comprises a control terminal, a first terminal, and a second terminal, the control terminal to which one of the differential signals is input, the control terminal being electrically-grounded; and, the second transistor comprises a first terminal and a second terminal, the first terminal of the second transistor being connected to the first terminal, the second terminal of the second transistor from which output signal is outputted, a capacitor for adjusting the phase, the capacitor being connected to the second terminal; and a current source being connected to the second terminal.
