摘要: According to an embodiment, a method includes amplifying a signal provided by a capacitive signal source to form an amplified signal, detecting a peak voltage of the amplified signal, and adjusting a controllable impedance coupled to an output of the capacitive signal source in response to detecting the peak voltage. The controllable impedance is adjusted to a value inversely proportional to the detected peak voltage.

摘要: In accordance with an embodiment, a system includes a programmable gain amplifier having a switchable feedback capacitor coupled in parallel with a first capacitor and a controller. The controller is configured to couple the feedback capacitor between an input node of the programmable gain amplifier and an output node of the programmable gain amplifier in a first gain setting, and switch a first terminal of the feedback capacitor from the output of the programmable gain amplifier to a reference node while a second terminal of the feedback capacitor remains coupled to the input node of the programmable gain amplifier for a first time period when transitioning from the first gain setting to a second gain setting.

摘要: A radio frequency (RF) receive circuit is described herein. In accordance with one embodiment, the RF receive circuit includes a mixer configured to receive an RF input signal to down-convert the RF input signal into a base-band or intermediate frequency (IF) band, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), and a signal processing chain coupled between the mixer and the ADC. The signal processing chain includes at least two circuit nodes. The RF receive circuit further includes an oscillator circuit that is configured to generate a test signal. The oscillator circuit is coupled to the signal processing chain and is configured to selectively feed the oscillator signal into one of the at least two circuit nodes.
