LM13600 Dual Operational Trans-conductance Amplifier

1 Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA)

LM13600 consists of two current-controlled transconductance amplifiers, each with differential inputs and a push-pull output. The two amplifiers share common supplies but otherwise operate independently. Linearizing diodes are provided at the inputs to reduce distortion and allow higher input levels.

Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA)

Operational transconductance amplifier is basically an amplifier, that produces an output current, when a differential input voltage is applied. It is also known as a voltage to current converter. OTA amplifiers are similar to general amplifier, with the only difference being that an OTA has a high impedance differential input stage, that may be used with negative feedback.
