摘要： An RF detector configured to provide two outputs, one being a function of the true RMS power level of an RF input signal, and the other being a function of the instantaneous/peak power of the RF input signal, normalized to the average power level. The RF detector includes a variable gain detection subsystem including a single detector or detector array that provides a representation of the power level of the RF input signal. The detector or detector array is common to both the RMS power detection channel and the instantaneous/peak power detection channel of the RF detector. A method of RF detection includes providing representations of the RF input signal at different gain levels, selecting one or more of the representations, and averaging the selected signals. The gain levels of the selected representations is adjusted to provide information about the average power level of the RF input signal.

摘要： A variable gain amplifier has at least two branches connected in parallel to drive a common output load. Each branch includes at least two FETs in a cascode configuration. A first FET in each branch is arranged to receive an input signal and to amplify the signal in a common source configuration; the second FET is arranged in a common gate configuration with its source receiving the output current of the first FET. The gate of the second FET is coupled to a corresponding gain control input so that the second FET is enabled when the gate receives an enabling gain control signal and disabled otherwise. Preferably the first and second FETs in each branch are biased in a saturation region of operation when the second FET is enabled by the gain control input. This maintains a low distortion figure throughout the dynamic range of the gain control. Preferably, the invention also includes an active fixed gain power amplification stage for coupling the output to a power amplifier.
