ABSTRACT:
A variable gain amplifier includes an amplifier for amplifying an input signal, a switch controlled with a given duty factor and a smoothing filter connected to the switch. The filter and the switch constitutes a negative feedback loop for the amplifier of which amplification factor is variably controlled by varying the duty factor of the switch.
