摘要： A linear decibel-scale variable gain amplifier includes an amplifying stage for generating an output voltage according to a differential input voltage, and a gain-controlling stage for outputting a gain-controlling voltage to the amplifying stage according to a first controlling voltage and a second controlling voltage. A voltage gain of the linear decibel-scale variable gain amplifier is inversely proportional to a simple exponential function, and the value of the simple exponential function is determined by the difference between the first controlling voltage and the second controlling voltage. The value of the voltage gain is unaffected by changes of the thermal voltage.

摘要： A mixer for the elimination of harmonic mixing in signal transmission is presented. The mixer incorporates a mixing unit and a modulation output unit. The mixing unit receives an input signal and a modulated signal, and outputs an output signal after signal mixing. The modulation output unit is for the generation of modulated signals, which are usually pulse-width modulated. The modulation output unit includes a delta sigma modulator and a digital domain code generator. The delta sigma modulator outputs the modulated signal responding to the received oscillation signal and digital domain code, the digital domain code generator generates the digital domain code in order to provide digital domain sine wave code for the use of the delta sigma modulator. The oscillation signal may be a signal of constant hi-frequency, or a signal that has a frequency larger or equal to that of the input signal by an integer factor.
