Patent ID: 7764124

Claim:
A transconductance element having an input and an output, the transconductance element comprising: a first and a second transconductance circuit, each transconductance circuit comprising: an n-type transistor having a source, a drain and a gate; a p-type transistor having a source, a drain and a gate; the source of the n-type transistor connected to the source of the p-type transistor; one or more resistive loads, each load connected to the drain of either the n-type transistor or the p-type transistor, each load allowing passage of a current; and a capacitive element having a first connection and a second connection, the first connection of the capacitive element connected to the drain of the n-type transistor and the second connection of the capacitive element electrically connected to the drain of the p-type transistor; a bridge connecting a source in the first transconductance circuit to a source in the second transconductance circuit; and, wherein the input is connected to a gate, and the output is connected to the drain of at least one transistor that is connected to a load.
