Gain-controllable wide-band low-noise amplifier

Abstract

The invention provides a gain-controllable wide-frequency low-noise amplifier, wherein, a state configuration device is used for generating input and output configuration signals, gains and wave section switch control signals, respectively controlling an input resistance matching circuit, a gain-controllable wide-frequency low-noise amplifier and an output resistance matching circuit, and setting suitable input resistance, amplifier gain, working bandwidth and output resistance. RF input signals can be transmitted with maximum efficiency to the gain-controllable amplifier through the input resistance matching circuit and generate little energy reflection. Subsequently, owing to the self-adaptability of the amplifier gain, the amplifier adjusts the self-gain according to the input RF signal amplitude, leads the output voltage to be stable, and ensures the normal operation of the sub-step circuit. Owing to the existence of the output resistance matching circuit, the system output signal can be transmitted to the sub-step circuit with the maximum efficiency, thus ensuring the working efficiency of the circuit. The gain-controllable wide-frequency low-noise amplifier of the invention can be applied to the wireless transceiver with different resistance antennas and different working frequency protocols, and can carry out the self-adaptability gain adjustment.
