This stage was found in a 1964 Electronic Design. The transistors are of the time and the shape of the signal obtained is shown in the diagram.
The integrated circuit is not common nowadays since the configuration was obtained in Motorola's Linear...
This amplifier was found in Burr-Brown documentation from the 90's. The gain can be programmed by resistor...
In the figure we have an IF amplifier step using a MOSFET. The circuit was found in a 1980s...
