ABSTRACT:
A wireless communication receiver that is able to lessen the effect of noise that accompanies gain change by programmable gain amplifiers. The receiver includes an AGC controller which controls the timing at which the programmable gain amplifiers make gain change, using a terminal counter and a sequencer. The receiver prevents gain change noise signals during the reception of control signals and other signals that are susceptible to noise. By the timing control feature, the programmable gain amplifiers make gain change while reducing noise impact.
