A differential amplifier is constructed in such a manner that the sources of a first and a second MOS transistor and the drain of a third MOS transistor are connected to each other, these MOS transistors being of the same conductivity type, the other end of a current source whose one end is connected to a power supply or the ground is connected to the drain of the first MOS transistor and the gate of the third MOS transistor, and the source of the third MOS transistor is connected to the power supply or the ground. The differential amplifier supplies a differential input signal to the gates of the first and second MOS transistors and obtains the output from the drain of the second MOS transistor. Two units of the differential amplifier are connected in parallel, with the input terminals cross-coupled with each other, thereby constructing a differential amplifier of the completely differential type.
