    摘要: A direct conversion receiver (10) having a homodyning section (12) and a filter (18). The filter (18) includes a plurality of serially coupled high pass filter stages (20(1)-20(n)). The high pass filter section (18) act as a dc offset correction loop. The plurality of high pass filter stages (20(1)-20(n)) also enables the integration of the needed capacitors thus minimizing external components and connections. Each one of the filter stages includes an amplifier (22) and a low pass filter (24). Each one of the low pass filters (24) is adapted to have the cutoff frequency thereof switch from an initial high cutoff frequency to a subsequent lower cutoff frequency. A high pass filter stage (20(1)-20(n)) of a direct conversion receiver (10) is provided which includes in a low pass filter feedback section (24) thereof: a capacitor (C) and a resistor section (30). The resistor section (30) includes a switch for changing the resistance of the resistance section. A switching arrangement (32) is included for charging the capacitor (C) rapidly during an initial, start-up time period or after a large step change in the gain of the amplifier (22).
