Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of variable gain amplifier, relate in particular to a kind of amplifier with bandpass filtering function.
Background technology
Superheterodyne receiver is a kind of widely used system configuration; Its basic principle is to convert a fixed intermediate frequency signal into after passing through amplification and down-conversion to the high-frequency signal that antenna receives; Intermediate-freuqncy signal is adjusted to suitable amplitude through variable gain amplifier, extracts useful signal through bandpass filtering again and gets into demodulation.Wherein existing band pass filter circuit design is generally all comparatively complicated, is example with the Gm-C band pass filter, and is as shown in Figure 1; Its circuit structure comprises 4 Gm, is respectively: Gm1, Gm2, Gm3, Gm4, wherein; The positive input terminal of Gm4 connects positive input voltage Vinp, negative input end ground connection, the positive input terminal ground connection of Gm3; Negative input end connects negative input voltage vin n, and the output of Gm4 and Gm3 is connected at the Vout point, on the one hand through capacitor C 1 ground connection; Connect the positive input terminal of Gm1 and the output of Gm2 on the other hand respectively, the negative input of Gm1 and the positive input terminal of Gm2 be ground connection respectively, and the output of Gm1 and the negative input end of Gm2 are at V
LPThe point connection is also passed through capacitor C 2 ground connection.Though sort circuit is on the filtering performance, have very big advantage on the Q value adjustable range, its has also increased circuit area and complexity simultaneously.
Summary of the invention
Technical problem to be solved by this invention provides a kind of amplifier with bandpass filtering function; It can be through adopting simple Gm-C low-pass-filter feedback loop; Make VGA (variable gain amplifier) output signal and input signal subtract each other the realization high pass characteristic; Again because the low-pass characteristic of VGA self, the amplifier of having realized having the bandpass filtering function.
In order to solve above technical problem; The invention provides a kind of amplifier with bandpass filtering function, comprise a variable gain amplifier, its output is connected to its input through a Gm-C low pass filter; Form feedback control loop, realize the bandpass filtering function of variable gain amplifier.
Because the present invention uses above-mentioned circuit structure, it is simple to have form, and chip area is little, and characteristics such as easy realization have effectively been eliminated the influence of low-frequency noise and DC maladjustment.

Embodiment
As shown in Figure 2; Be the circuit structure with amplifier of bandpass filtering function of the present invention, comprise a variable gain amplifier VGA, its output is connected to its input through a Gm-C low pass filter; Form feedback control loop, realize the bandpass filtering function of variable gain amplifier.Wherein the input signal VIN of variable gain amplifier is differential signal with output signal VOUT.
Fig. 3 is the circuit structure of variable gain amplifier VGA of the present invention; Comprise ten metal-oxide-semiconductors, metal-oxide-semiconductor M1 and M2 are for importing pipe, and its grid end connects positive and negative differential input signal respectively; Its source end links together through current source metal-oxide-semiconductor M5 ground connection; Its drain terminal is connected to power supply through load metal-oxide-semiconductor M0 and M6 respectively, and metal-oxide-semiconductor M3 and M4 import pipe for feedback, and its grid end connects positive and negative feedback differential input signal respectively; Its source end links to each other with the source end of metal-oxide-semiconductor M1 and M2 respectively; The drain terminal of metal-oxide-semiconductor M4 is connected to the drain terminal of metal-oxide-semiconductor M1, and the drain terminal of metal-oxide-semiconductor M3 is connected to the drain terminal of metal-oxide-semiconductor M2, and metal-oxide-semiconductor M8 and M9 connect into the drain terminal sampling that the diode mode is connected to metal-oxide-semiconductor M1 and M2 respectively; And coming the grid end of control load metal-oxide-semiconductor M0 and M6 through common-mode feedback, the source end of metal-oxide-semiconductor M8 and M9 links together and is connected to ground through current source metal-oxide-semiconductor M7.
As shown in Figure 3; Vinp and Vinn are the voltage of intermediate frequency signal that radio-frequency front-end is sent here in the foregoing circuit; The differential pair of forming through M1 and M2 converts current signal into, and the voltage signal Vfbn and the Vfbp that send here by the Gm-C low-pass-filter feedback loop, also the differential pair through M3 and M4 composition converts current signal into; This two-way current signal subtracts each other at output node Vp and Vn, and is converted into voltage signal through the active load of M0 and M6.Because the signal that Vfbn and Vfbp send here is Vinp and the signal of Vinn behind LPF, this two paths of signals subtracts each other can realize the high-pass filtering characteristic, filtering the interference of low-frequency noise and DC maladjustment.And Vc+ that gain control circuit is sent here and Vc-signal convert electric current into through the differential pair of M5 and M7 composition, are controlling the size of current that flows through M1 ~ M4, thereby can control this Amplifier Gain.Because the low-pass characteristic of VGA self, what this structure realized at last is a variable gain amplifier with bandpass filter function.
