zero Feedback, Zero cap, Fully Differential Preamp

Hi Guys,

Got an idea on the preamp schematic attached. The objective are :
1) No capacitor in input and output
2) No feedback
3) Full differential I/O
4) Single stage

The opamp act as a common-mode feedback(CMFB) to null the output voltage to zero. Biasing is determined by the load resistor which is force to have 12V across it by the CMFB loop. Input transitor pair can be replace by Jfet or BJT.

Question :
1) The CMFB does not correct the differential offset voltage if it is present at the input pair.
2) The input transistor pair will always have Vgs=Vds. Will there by any problem?
3) I'm planning to use battery supply with 2X12V SLA battery connected in series. If the voltage of battery drops, the biasing will also drop. How to solve this?

Pls help.

Regards.

Sort of, but your Q5 and Q6 are not set up as folded cascodes.
You want PNP devices and have the Emitters looking at the
Drains of the input JFETs.

There are other ways to set up the circuit besides this. The
driving item is the desire for the requirements of the thread title.

:cool:
