Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of automatic gain control of a radio frequency receiver and specifically relates to a radio frequency power detection circuit. The radio frequency power detection circuit comprises a programmable gain amplifier, a half wave rectifier, an instrumentation amplifier and a six-bit digital to analog converter. The programmable gain amplifier is controlled by two-bit digital logic, a gain step is 3-decibel, and a gain range is 9-decibel; the half wave rectifier is connected with the rear of the programmable gain amplifier, a detection for an input power in a fixed range is completed by the half wave rectifier, and the power range is a working range of the rectifier; signals with different power can be amplified to the working range of a rectifier by an optional gain of an amplifier; and finally the instrumentation amplifier is used for amplifying a direct-current output of the half wave rectifier. The rectifier and the instrumentation amplifier can generate output offset voltages caused by a device mismatch, due to offset direct-current voltages, output voltages of a power detection circuit exceed a measuring range of an analog to digital converter, and a six-bit current type full binary digital to analog converter is used for performing an offset pre-distortion for the circuit.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of automatic gain control in radio frequency receivers, in particular to a power detection circuit, in particular to a power detection circuit capable of detecting radio frequency terminal signals. Background technique [0002] The existing digital TV terrestrial transmission standard stipulates that the RF TV tuner can work normally within a large dynamic range of the input signal to ensure the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) required by digital demodulation, such as the U-band signal of the CMMB standard: -95dBm ~-10dBm, DVB-T signal: -90dBm~-20dBm. At the same time, the tuner should also meet the requirement that the signal strength finally input to the baseband analog-to-digital converter reaches its optimal input power, so as to ensure that the analog-to-digital converter produces less quantization noise. Therefore, the tuner is required to be able to reasonably set the gain according to the signal strengt...
