ABSTRACT:
A variable gain RF input amplifier having an improved cross modulation characteristic using a field effect transistor. About the first 10 db of signal attenuation is effected by an AGC voltage applied to the transistor, following which supplementary attenuation is provided by an increasing reverse bias applied to a PIN-diode in the RF signal input path to the transistor, the diode bias being derived from the source circuit of the transistor.
