Driver circuit
In a driver circuit including transistors each having an emitter follower configuration and a pair of differential transistors with emitter outputs of the transistors of the emitter follower configuration as inputs, end terminals of the pair of differential transistors are connected to individual bonding pads, and the respective bonding pads and voltage sources are individually connected by wires that function as inductors. Thereby, even in the case where the lengths of the wires of output terminals change according to packaging, outputs can be matched by determining the wire lengths of the wires suitably.
1. A driver circuit comprising:
transistors each having an emitter follower configuration;
a pair of differential transistors having control electrodes for receiving outputs from the emitters of the transistors of the emitter follower configuration, respectively; and
resistors inserted between the emitters of the transistors of the emitter follower configuration and the base of differential transistors, wherein
end terminals of the pair of differential transistors are connected to individual bonding pads, and
the respective bonding pads and voltage sources are individually connected by wires that function as inductors.
2. A driver circuit according to claim 1 , wherein
lengths of the wires are increased/decreased according to values of inductors provided at output terminals of the pair of differential transistors.
3. A driver circuit according to claim 1 , wherein
bonding pads at output terminals of the pair of differential transistors and the bonding pads for the end terminals are arranged on the same side of a chip on which the driver circuit is mounted.
