Abstract:
An analog amplifier is provided. The analog variable amplifier includes a first amplifier stage configured to amplify a bias current to output a first output voltage and a second output voltage that respectively depend on a magnitude of a first input voltage and a second input voltage, a second amplifier stage configured to receive the first output voltage and the second output voltage of the first amplifier stage as inputs and to amplify the received first output voltage and the second output voltage, and at least one auxiliary bias current source coupled to an electrical connection between the first amplifier stage and the second amplifier stage through which the second amplifier stage receives the first output voltage, and coupled to an electrical connection between the first amplifier stage and the second amplifier stage through which the second amplifier stage receives the second output voltage.
Abstract:
An electronic device and a method for control of an output amplitude of a Voltage Control Oscillator (VCO) in the electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a first circuit configured to output a frequency signal corresponding to a control voltage, and a second circuit configured to generate control bits that control an amplitude of the frequency signal based on a comparison result between a peak voltage of the frequency signal and a reference voltage of the frequency signal.
