The present invention provides apparatus and methods to achieve a high speed bi-CMOS differential amplifier with controlled output voltage swing for use in amplifying low level complementary logic signals. The differential amplifier iscomprised of a load current controller and a sense amplifier. The load current controller compares a desired reference voltage to the voltage drop across a simulated load. The load current controller then produces therefrom a bias voltage corresponding to the current which results in a voltage drop equal to the reference voltage. The bias voltage, when applied to the sense amplifier, limits the output of the sense amplifier to a controlled voltage swing of magnitude equal to the reference voltage.
