automatic gain control (AGC)%variable gain amplifier (VGA)%DC offset canceller (DCOC)%exponen-tial gain control
This paper presented an automatic gain control (AGC) circuit suitable for FM/cw ladar. The proposed architecture was based on two-stage variable gain amplifier (VGA) chain with a novel DC offset canceller circuit, which contained an improved Gilbert cell and a Gm-C feedback loop. To keep the VGA with a linearity in dB charac-teristic, an improved exponential gain control circuit was introduced. The AGC was implemented in 0.18mm standard CMOS process. Simulation and measurement results verified that its gain ranged from-20 dB to 30 dB, and band-width ranged from 100 kHz to 10 MHz. Its power consumption was 19.8 mW under a voltage supply of 3.3 V.
