Abstract: L'invention concerne un amplificateur de gain variable ('VGA'), présentant une architecture en boucle ouverte. Ce VGA comprend une ou plusieurs cellules de gain couplées dans la trajectoire de signal pour amplifier un signal d'entrée donné. Ce VGA comprend également une cellule de gain répliquée présentant un circuit de servocommande de gain qui amplifie un signal de référence de gain en fonction d'une entrée de gain programmable, et égalise le signal de référence amplifié en signal de référence non amplifié original, en envoyant continuellement une entrée de commande de gain aux cellules de gain de trajectoire de signal en fonction de l'égalisation. Cette entrée de commande de gain reflète le gain établi par l'entrée de gain programmable, comme étant réglée pour des variations de procédé, de température et de tension d'alimentation. Cette cellule de gain répliquée comprend également un circuit de servocommande de tension de mode commun, permettant de détecter la tension de mode commun du signal de référence amplifié, et de l'égaliser en une référence de tension de mode commun, en envoyant un signal de commande de tension de mode commun aux cellules de gain de trajectoire de signal, afin de réguler leur tension de mode commun. Cette régulation de la tension de mode commun des cellules de trajectoire de signal est compensée pour des variations de procédé, de température et de tension d'alimentation.
