C3 is necessary despite C2 because of PNP tempco ?
Why not use a PMOS instead ?

For those interested in various simple discrete opamp topologies, you can have a look here :

Winner from listening tests from a number of people was (E), followed by (F).
No surprise, actually.

Hi Nelson
I have a stack of low noise Toshiba 2SA970, would you consider these to be an upgrade over KSA992?
A little surprised you easily achieved a negative phase harmonic with this circuit.
Would have thought you would need to use a circuit of opposite polarity like J2.
Did you need to employ any tricks to achieve this eg more gain off the output compared with the input?

I really appreciate this Nelson, my pcb cad software skills have become very rusty, Been away from it too long.
I have been wanting a front end circuit like this for some time.
Please give us some new F4 type toys. The F4 concept is seriously awesome.

You want to take a trip to North Carolina?

there is established practice of many, worldwide, when making successful pilgrimage to Mecca, they added "Pilgrim" to their family name
so, Mighty finishing task of reaching Singing Bush twice ( 2011 and 2019), feel free to call me Mighty Pilgrim ZM
that, speaking of adherents and such

Storms are always relative, Mighty Hajioh yeah, being at SR is same as being in the eye of the storm

It could be fun to do a version with the TI JFE2140, production availability, already matched, low cost, low noise.... But of course in SMD only....
Thank you papa. I think “poof” also means things appearing, like projects being realized because of this.
