ABSTRACT:
An automatic level control circuit for an operational amplifier 16 for minimizing spikes or instantaneous gain of the amplifier at a low period wherein no signal is received on the input. The apparatus includes a multi-branch circuit which is connected between an output terminal 26 and a feedback terminal 34. A pair of zener diodes 50 and 52 are connected back-to-back in series with a capacitor 54 provided in one of the branches. A pair of voltage dividing resistors 44 and 46 are connected in another of the branches and a second capacitor 42 is provided in the remaining branch of controlling the high frequency oscillations of the operational amplifier.
