ABSTRACT:
An automatic transimpedance control amplifier is disclosed. The amplifier incorporates an automatic gain control circuit which simultaneously and automatically adjust the value of transimpedance and the voltage gain at each gain stage of the amplifier according to the input current. The amplifier has wide bandwidth, high sensitivity/and more importantly, wide dynamic range.
