Embodiment Construction

[0062] figure 1 Shown is the basic structure of a VGA stage including signal feeders. The amplified signal is transmitted via a cable H (coaxial cable or twisted pair) by a drive circuit (transmitter) 3 . At the interface between the transmitter / cable and the cable / receiver, respective transformers 4, 5 are given. The structure of the VGA stage 1 of the receiver is a fully differential structure, and has the same circuit part for the positive half-wave and the negative half-wave of the input signal respectively.

[0063] The VGA stage shown is capable of highly linearly amplifying or attenuating differential input signals fluctuating between, for example, 20 mV to 2 V, respectively, with a wide dynamic range and wide bandwidth and is capable of providing a substantially constant amplitude differential output at the differential output terminals VOUTP and VOUTN Signal.

[0064] By means of terminating resistors, the transmission cable H can be terminated non-reflectively. ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a VGA stage having a novel circuit configuration for amplifying / attenuating a differential input signal which is transmitted via a transmission line (H). The VGA stage comprises an operational amplifier (OPV1, OPV2), which is connected as shunt feedback, for amplifying the input signal; a string of resistors (R01, R01') for attenuating the signal; and a control device (2) for switching the string of resistors (R01, R01').

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a broadband VGA stage, in particular for amplifying / attenuating differential input signals with a wide dynamic range. Background technique [0002] A VGA (Variable Gain Amplifier) ​​stage is used to convert a variable input signal into an output signal with a fixed amplitude. Modern VGA stages have to meet high requirements for linearity characteristics and bandwidth which can cause problems especially if the input signal has a wide dynamic range (eg from 20mV to 2V). [0003] In order to meet the above criteria, the problem is, especially due to the fact that sending the application-dependent signal over different cable lengths between the transmitter and the receiver, and the receiver's input amplifier has to handle amplitudes ranging from e.g. -20dB to + Signal between 20dB, at the same time, the amplifier must have excellent linearity, best offset and noise characteristics. In addition, the amplifier must not sign...
