Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing a negative resistance circuit for bandwidth extension are disclosed. Within a feedback path of a differential signal path, capacitors are placed on the inputs and outputs of a fully differential amplifier connecting to the differential signal path. In one embodiment, a circuit includes a fully differential amplifier and four capacitors. A first capacitor is coupled between a first signal path and a non-inverting input terminal of the amplifier and a second capacitor is coupled between the first signal path and a non-inverting output terminal of the amplifier. A third capacitor is coupled between a second signal path and an inverting input terminal of the amplifier and a fourth capacitor is coupled between the second signal path and an inverting output terminal of the amplifier. The first and second signal paths carry a differential signal.

Amplification circuitry is disclosed that couples neutralization transistors to amplification transistors to neutralize parasitic capacitance of the amplification transistors. Gates of a first amplification transistor and a first neutralization transistor are coupled together, and gates of a second amplification transistor and a second neutralization transistor are also coupled together. Drains of the first amplification transistor and the second neutralization transistor are coupled together, and drains of the second amplification transistor and the first neutralization transistor are also coupled together. Sources of neutralization transistors are coupled together at a node, such that a voltage swing of a first signal in the first neutralization transistor may be canceled by a voltage swing of a second signal in the second neutralization transistor. The node also couples to a resistor that prevents charge building in the neutralization transistors.

A power amplifier circuit includes amplifying transistors electrically cascade-connected, amplifying a signal supplied to a base, and outputting an amplified signal; a first resistive element having end parts connected to the base of a first amplifying transistor; a second resistive element having end parts connected to the base of a second amplifying transistor, which is an amplifying transistor located closer to an input side than the first amplifying transistor; a first bias supplying transistor having an emitter connected to one of the end parts of the first resistive element; a second bias supplying transistor having an emitter connected to one of the end parts of the second resistive element; and a bias current compensation transistor having a base connected to the end part of the first resistive element, a collector connected to the end part of the second resistive element, and an emitter connected to ground.
