ABSTRACT:
A push-button signal receiving device and a gain control method whereby error in validity determination of a received signal that accompanies the insertion of an AGC circuit can be prevented. An input bush-button signal is amplified by amplifying circuit and separated into signals of low- and high-frequency bands by first and second band-pass filters, respectively. Dialed number identifying circuit detects the frequencies of the separated signals to identify the dialed number, determines validity of the received push-button signal, and outputs the identified dialed number in accordance with the result of validity determination. Level detecting circuit detects the level of the output signal from the amplifying circuit. Gain control circuit controls the amplification gain of the amplifying circuit in accordance with the detected signal level, and holds the value of the amplification gain of the amplifying circuit while the received push-button signal is judged valid by the dialed number identifying circuit.
