    摘要: A controller 100 updates data LVLm indicative of a level section of an input audio signal and controls a reference level Vr based on a signal CMP representative of a comparison result between the input audio signal and the reference level Vr, and further, controls gains of electronic volumes 10L and 10R in such a manner that these gains become such gains corresponding to the level section of the input audio signal. In this case, the level sections of the input audio signals are related to the gains in such a manner that levels of output signals of the electronic volumes do not exceed a previously set output amplitude upper limit level.

    摘要: A variable gain amplifier (20) uses a differential attenuator (22) to provide a floating, high-impedance differential input to which a differential input signal is applied. The differential attenuator is comprised of (N-1) attenuator stages, with each stage forming a pair of attenuator taps for providing an attenuated version of the differential input signal. Each pair of taps is coupled to the differential inputs of a respective gm stage. The differential outputs of the gm stages are coupled to the differential inputs of a high open-loop gain main amplifier (28). The transconductance of each gm stage is controlled by an interpolator (26) which provides a bias current to each of the gm stages in a sequential manner as a gain control voltage is swept from its minimum to its maximum values. A gain response is produced that is linear-in-dB relative to the gain control voltage.

    摘要: In telecommunication devices like power amplifiers for cellular systems the amplitude of a transmission signal has to be limited to avoid signal deterioration. The improve the effciency of such amplitude limiter the present invention proposes to fed the input sample sequence to an estimation filter (56, 57) to determine the actual signal overshoot over a predefined threshold value. By this a clipping control signal to adjust the amplitude of the transmission signal accordingly can be generated with higher accuracy.

    摘要: A rectifier circuit produces an output (Vo) which is a function of the magnitude of the input signal (272) and has a controllable transient response. The circuit requires no rectification diodes. The voltage on a capacitor (230) is sensed and compared with that of an input voltage (Vi). The operation of charging and discharging switches (S1, S2) is adjusted by a control circuit (205) to charge the capacitor if the magnitude of the signal is greater than the capacitor voltage and to discharge the capacitor if the magnitude of the input signal is less than the capacitor voltage. The attack and release function of the rectifier is selectable by limiting the rate at which current charges/discharges the capacitor, preferably with constant current sources (242, 244) comprised of current mirrors.

    摘要: An IF amplifier/log detector with a modular architecture includes a plurality of voltage amplifiers (12,14,16), a plurality of rectifiers (20,22,24), a plurality of voltage-to-current converters (26,28,30) and a current summing circuit (32,34,36). Each amplifier is composed of a first differential transistor (60,62) pair driven by a first current (64) proportional to the temperature to fix the gain. Each converter (26,28,30) includes a second differential transistor pair driven by a current proportional to the temperature and inversely proportional to a process parameter, and comprises a third differential transistor pair driven by a third current inversely proportional to the process parameter. In this manner, a circuit having improved performance with variations in temperature and process parameters is obtained.
