An amplifier circuit includes a first amplifying section for amplifying a signal, and a second amplifying section for amplifying the signal amplified by the first amplifying section. A capacitive element connects the output of the first amplifying section to the input of the second amplifying section. When power is applied to the amplifier circuit, a bypass circuit causes the electric current flowing from a first power supply toward the input of the second amplifying section through the first amplifying section and the capacitive element to be bypassed to a second power supply.

A wireless communication device capable of restraining interference and thereby improving transmission quality. A wireless controller includes a wireless communication interface, and a baseband controller includes a baseband communication interface for controlling the transfer/reception of baseband signals, a logic circuit, and a memory. The wireless communication interface and the baseband communication interface are connected to each other by a communication line, and the memory stores, with respect to individual radio frequencies of a receive radio signal, bit rates for the communication line at which interference caused by noise produced around the communication line is minimized. When notified of a receive radio frequency, the logic circuit reads, from the memory, an optimum bit rate which corresponds to the receive radio frequency and at which the interference is minimized, and sets the optimum bit rate in the wireless communication interface and the baseband communication interface.

An attenuation compensating circuit includes a detector and a stabilizer. The detector has a dummy capacitor corresponding to a capacitor connected to an input terminal of an amplifier and, by detecting the degree of attenuation of a dummy signal passing through the dummy capacitor, detects the degree of attenuation when a signal to be amplified passes through the capacitor connected to the amplifier. The stabilizer has two dummy amplifiers and causes a voltage difference between the input voltages of the dummy amplifiers, where the voltage difference corresponds to the degree of attenuation detected by the detector. The stabilizer controls a bias voltage for setting gain of the dummy amplifier so that a product of the voltage difference of the input voltage and the gain of the dummy amplifier is equivalent to the difference of the voltages output by the dummy amplifiers and supplies the bias voltage to the amplifier.
