An apparatus comprises a transistor pair including a first metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) coupled to a second MOSFET. The first MOSFET includes a first gate terminal and a first drain terminal. The second MOSFET comprises a second gate terminal and a second drain terminal. The first gate terminal is configured to receive a first signal. The second gate terminal is configured to receive a second signal that is phase shifted with respect to the first signal. An output node is coupled to the first drain terminal and the second drain terminal and configured to output a third signal that is proportional to a power of the first signal and the second signal.

Disclosed herein is a method including sinking current from a pair of input transistors of a differential amplifier while sourcing more current to the pair of input transistors than is sunk. The method further includes generating a pair of input differential signals using a pair of input voltage regulators, and amplifying a difference between the pair of input differential signals to produce a pair of differential output voltages, using the differential amplifier. The method also includes amplifying the pair of differential output voltages using at least one voltage gain amplifier, and generating control signals for current sources that source the current to the pair of input transistors of the differential amplifier, from the pair of differential output voltages after at least amplification.
