The technique is to use the transistor equivalent of the long-tailed pair in valves {Figure ). This is a differential current amplifier which will discriminate against in-phase input signals. Inputs in opposite phase produce equal and opposite changes in collector current; there is no net change in the current through the common emitter resistance, and no 46A 697
