ABSTRACT:
A circuit for automatically controlling the operation of a variable gain control circuit in an audio signal processing system by verifying whether gain change is desirable and then gating the operation of the gain control circuit is disclosed. A pair of operational amplifiers along with a set of four diodes produce two equal absolute value signals representing a full wave rectified version of the audio input signal. A first filter circuit processes one of the absolute value signals to produce a third signal corresponding to average signal amplitude. A second filter circuit processes the other absolute value signal to produce a fourth signal corresponding to an average of peak values. A comparator compares the third and fourth signals and produces an output signal which is used as the control signal for controlling the variable gain control circuit.
