A semiconductor device and a method for controlling amplitude of signal in the semiconductor device are provided. The semiconductor device comprises a signal generator configured to output a sinewave, a comparator configured to compare a magnitude of the sinewave with a magnitude of a reference signal at a first timing corresponding to a timing control signal and to output a comparison result, and a control signal adjustor configured to adjust one of the current control signal and a timing control signal depending on the comparison result of the comparator.

Semiconductor device and method for controlling amplitude of signal in the semiconductor device

An apparatus and method of compensating for a direct voltage offset in a direct conversion receiver of a wireless communications system is provided. The apparatus includes a voltage control oscillator for generating a local oscillation signal having the same frequency as an input signal, a frequency converter for combining the input signal with the local oscillation signal, a first compensator for determining a first direct voltage offset generated due to a leaked local oscillation signal flowed into the frequency converter, for feeding back a magnitude of the determined first direct voltage offset to the frequency converter and for compensating for the first direct voltage offset, and a first register for storing a magnitude of direct voltage offset for a first variable gain amplifier, wherein the first variable gain amplifier is positioned in a rear end of the frequency converter, connected to the first register, and performs a modem associated offset compensation using a magnitude of direct voltage offset stored in the first register.
