1. A low-noise differential bias circuit for supplying a low-noise bias current to bases or gates of a pair of differential transistors, the low-noise differential bias circuit comprising:

  • a first resistor having a first end being connected to a base or gate of one of the pair of differential transistors;

    a second resistor having a first end being connected to a base or gate of the other one of the pair of differential transistors;

    a third resistor having a first end being connected to a second end of the first resistor;

    a fourth resistor having a first end being connected to a second end of the second resistor;

    a first transistor, a second end of the third resistor being connected to a base or gate of the first transistor; and

    a second transistor, a second end of the fourth resistor being connected to a base or gate of the second transistor, wherein a direct-current voltage is supplied to a connection point between the first resistor and the third resistor, a connection point between the second resistor and the fourth resistor, a collector or drain of the first transistor, and a collector or drain of the second transistor, from a voltage supply point through a ground element.
