Abstract

PURPOSE:To minimize the effect of noise on a power supply of a limiter amplifier circuit by adopting a small dynamic range of the amplifier at the 1st stage and a larger dynamic range toward the post-stage. CONSTITUTION:The dynamic range of the 1st amplifier 1 is limited by a resistor R1 connected respectively to the part with the highest potential and the lowest potential of the amplifier 1. Similarly, the dynamic range of amplifiers 2-n is limited toward the output. In selecting the relation of resistors R1-Rn as R1>R2->Rn, the amplifier 1 of the 1st stage with a small input signal has a small dynamic range, and the dynamic range of the amplifiers 2-n is increased toward the post-stages. Since the dynamic range is varied depending on the number of stages in this way, the effect of noise on the power supply of the limiter amplifier circuit is minimized.

However, the dynamic range of a limiter amplifier circuit connected in multiple stages is determined by the positive power supply Vcc and the negative power supply VIE, so the input signal is very small, so it was attempted to increase the gain of the first stage amplifier to widen the dynamic range of the amplifier. When noise occurs in the positive power supply vCC and the negative power supply VER, the noise is amplified by the amplifier, making it impossible to distinguish between the input signal and the noise, and the amplifier is affected by the noise on the stain source. This has the disadvantage of deteriorating the circuit characteristics.
