Title:
VARIABLE GAIN AMPLIFIER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/105282
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The gain of an amplifier, e.g. a differential amplifier, is controlled without varying
the input impedance. A variable gain amplifier comprises a plurality of differential
amplifiers connected in parallel, and a plurality of signal switching means
corresponding to the differential amplifiers, respectively, for switching
a positive-phase differential signal and a negative-phase differential signal.
Two outputs from each signal switching means are connected with the positive-phase
input terminal and the negative-phase input terminal of each differential amplifier,
and either the positive-phase differential signal or the negative-phase differential
signal is provided as an input signal.
