Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a gain control stage circuit, in particular to a double control voltage dB linear VGA circuit with large gain range and high precision based on a gain attenuation structure. Background technique [0002] Analog circuits need to amplify or attenuate the signal, which is accomplished by a variable gain amplifier. As an indispensable module of the analog RF front end, the variable gain amplifier is widely used in many aspects such as disk reading drive circuits, magnetic data storage systems, electromagnetic meters, and TV tuners. In communication systems such as optical fiber communication, microwave communication, and satellite communication, as well as radar and broadcast television systems, in order to realize that the establishment time of the automatic gain control loop has nothing to do with the amplitude of the input signal, the variable gain amplifier in the loop must have a dB linear gain control features. With the vig...
