TL;DR: Differential amplifier as mentioned in this paper includes a differential amplifier circuit, a bias circuit, and an output circuit, which outputs an output signal from an output of the activated differential amplifier section, and the bias circuit activates one of the amplifier sections in response to a control signal.
Abstract: Differential amplifier includes a differential amplifier circuit, a bias circuit and an output circuit. The differential amplifier circuit includes first and second differential amplifier sections. The first differential amplifier section includes a first PMOS transistor which has a source connected with a power supply line, and a first pair of PMOS transistors which have sources connected with a drain of the first PMOS and gates respectively receiving first and second input voltages. The second differential amplifier section includes a first NMOS transistor which has a source connected with a ground line, and a second pair of NMOS transistors which have sources connected with a drain of the first NMOS and gates respectively receiving the first and second input voltages. The bias circuit activates one of the amplifier sections in response to a control signal. The output circuit outputs an output signal from an output of the activated differential amplifier section.

Abstract: A fully differential operational amplifier with improved common mode circuitry for low supply voltage applications is disclosed. The amplifier includes inventing and non-inventing inputs and dual-ended invented and non-invented outputs. The amplifier also includes source transistors for pulling the output to obtain particular output voltage swing. Connections between the inputs and outputs include DC biasing circuitry. The amplifier includes a transistor of select size and characteristics to compensate for voltage drop due to other transistors of the amplifier. Common mode circuitry of the amplifier provides a high level of common mode reconstruction.

TL;DR: In this article, an integrated circuit transimpedance amplifier for an optical receiver is formed by a bipolar process comprising fixed value resistive elements in a network to provide AGC.
Abstract: An integrated circuit transimpedance amplifier for an optical receiver is formed by a bipolar process comprising fixed value resistive elements in a network to provide AGC. The resistive elements are arranged in a parallel configuration and a transistor switching network is provided to enable at least one of said elements to be isolated from a gain stage of the amplifier thereby providing a means of varying amplifier gain.
