Description of the Invention: Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a limiting amplifier architecture, and more particularly to a limiting amplifier for differential DC voltage cancellation to save wafer layout area. Architecture. [Prior Art] In wireless communication systems, especially Bluetooth wireless receivers, the GFSK (Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying) receiver demodulates the use of the limiting amplifier to consume less power than the automatic gain control amplifier. The dynamic range of the amplifier is larger than that of the automatic gain control amplifier. This application is suitable for logarithmic amplifiers. Referring to Figure 1, there is shown a circuit diagram of a conventional limiting amplifier architecture. In the prior art, the limiting amplifier architecture 1 includes a plurality of gain amplifiers 102, each of which has a positive input terminal and a negative input terminal for receiving input signals, and positive and negative output terminals for A gain amplification is 102 electrical connection, and as shown in FIG. 1, there will be a gain amplifier 102 receiving the input signal Vin, after the signal is first-stage amplified, by the last stage gain amplifier 1〇2 Output the signal v〇ut. Since the multi-stage gain amplifier 102 amplifies the differential offset DC of the transistor, the signal will thus deviate from the differential DC offset voltage, causing the signal output by the last stage gain amplifier 102 to shift. Therefore, in order to adjust the offset voltage, as shown in Fig. 1, an offset cancellation circuit will be configured to reduce the differential DC voltage offset in a negative feedback manner to eliminate the offset generated during the signal processing. 5 1253230 15197twf.doc/g However, in the architecture of Figure 1, only the signal output from the gain amplifier 102 of the last stage is used to adjust the DC bias of the gain amplifier 102 of the first stage, which requires a large resistance. (R) and capacitor (C) to extract the DC offset voltage. Thus, in the prior art, two different limiting amplifiers with DC bias configurations as shown in Figures 2A and 2B are produced. As shown in FIG. 2A, this configuration is configured to configure a DC bias circuit 204 that outputs a fixed value to the gain amplifier 202, and a blocking capacitor 206 and 208 are disposed before the positive and negative inputs of the gain amplifier 202. In order to block the DC voltage in the signal from the previous stage, which is an open-circuit differential DC voltage cancellation method, there is another limiting amplifier configured with a DC bias, as shown in FIG. 2B. The self-DC bias and offset cancel circuit 210 for feeding back the DC offset voltage according to the gain amplifier 2〇2 to the DC voltage of the gain amplifier 202 is configured. Similarly, before the positive and negative inputs of the gain amplifier and 202, blocking capacitors 2〇6 and 2〇8 are arranged to block the output signal, which is the DC voltage extraction action. _ Integrally, the configuration of Figures 2A and 2B can be adjusted at each level, that is, the correct signal is output, and thus, the architecture shown in Fig. 3 is developed. Referring to FIG. 3, a five-stage closed-loop limiting amplifier architecture 3A includes five gain amplifiers 302, and each of the gain amplifications 302 is configured with a self-DC bias and offset cancellation circuit. And it can be positive feedback or negative feedback. The positive and negative inputs of each gain amplifier 3〇2 are also provided with blocking capacitors 306 and 3〇8 to block the DC bias. However, each of the gain amplifiers 302 is configured with a DC bias voltage and offset 1253230 | 5197 twf.doc / g cancel circuit 304 results, although the output signal can be made accurate, but will cause a large proportion of the area of the wafer.

The above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent. The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be apparent from the following description. .doc/g [Embodiment] Please refer to FIG. 4, which is a circuit diagram of a limiting amplifier architecture in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention. In the present embodiment, only the five-stage limiting amplifier architecture 400 is taken as an example, but in practice it is not limited thereto. In Fig. 4, this limitation is amplified to architecture 4, which includes two input stage gain amplification units 402 and 404, two intermediate stage gain amplification units 4〇6 and φ 408, and an output stage gain amplification unit 410. In the input stage gain amplifying unit 402 to the output stage gain amplifying unit 41, blocking capacitors 412 and 414 are disposed at the positive and negative input terminals of each unit to block the DC voltage. The input stage gain amplifying units 402, 404 each include an input gain amplification of 422, 426 and self-DC bias and offset cancellation circuits 424, 428. The input gain amplifiers 422 and 426 have a positive input terminal, a negative input terminal, a positive output terminal, and a negative output terminal. Since the embodiment is an example of a negative feedback method for offset cancellation, the input gain amplifier is used. The negative outputs of 422 and 426 are coupled to the positive input terminals of the input gain amplifiers 422 and 426 by the DC bias and offset cancel circuits 424 and 428, and the input gains are amplified to the positive outputs of 422 and U6. The negative input terminals of the input gain amplifiers 422, 426 are coupled by DC bias and offset cancellation circuits 424, 428. In the intermediate stage gain amplification unit 4〇6, 4〇8, the intermediate gain amplifiers 430, 434 and the DC bias circuits 4'32, 436. 1, the intermediate gain amplifiers 430, 434 have positive inputs, The positive input terminal and the negative output terminal of the negative input terminal, and the DC bias circuits 432, 436 are coupled to the positive input terminal and the negative input terminal of the amplifier 430, 434 in the 1253230 i 5 197twf.doc/g. And the DC bias, the path 432, 436 is the DC bias to supply a fixed value to the positive and negative inputs of the intermediate gain amplification states 430, 434. The output stage gain amplifying units 410 each include an output gain amplifier 43 8 and a self-DC bias and offset cancel circuit 44A.苴大请Please have the positive wheel input 'negative wheel input end, the positive output end two output;; and because this embodiment is an example of negative offset feedback offset cancellation action, so the output gain is amplified ϋ The output terminal of 438 is coupled to the positive output terminal of the output gain amplifier 438 by the DC bias and offset cancellation circuit 440, and the positive output of the output gain amplifier 438 is cancelled by the DC bias and offset. Circuit 440 is coupled to the negative input of output gain amplifier 438. Since the input signal Vin (differential DC voltage offset) is adjusted before the signal is processed by the limiting amplifier, one avoids excessive signal offset, and then To output the signal v〇m before 'adjust it to get the accurate output signal V〇ut. Referring to FIG. 4', the operation principle is that the input signal Vin is received by the positive and negative inputs of the input gain amplifier 422, and the blocking capacitors 412 and 414 block the DC voltage in the input signal Vin. The input gain amplifier 422 is output after amplifying the input signal Vin, and the self-DC bias and offset cancel circuit 424 is based on the output DC bias of the input gain amplifier 422, Φξ: for the DC bias to the input gain amplifier 422, The offset generated by the input gain amplifier 422 is reduced in a negative feedback cancellation mode. And so on, in the limiter amplifier architecture 400, the self-DC bias and offset cancellation power 11 1253230 15197 twf.doc / g channels 424, 428 and 440 are based on the input gain amplifiers 422, 426 and the output gain amplifier 438, respectively. The magnitude of the DC bias output at the positive and negative outputs determines the magnitude of the DC bias applied to the positive and negative inputs of the input gain amplifiers 422, 426 and output gain amplifier 438. The DC bias circuits 432, 436 supply a DC bias to the intermediate gain amplifiers 43A, 434 for a fixed value (preset at design time). As shown in Table 1 and Table 2, the limiting amplifier architecture of the present invention is 4〇〇
