Abstract
In electronic circuits having various gain states, small gain phase shift differences required among various gain states may pose a challenging problem. The disclosed methods and devices provide solution to such challenge. Electronic circuits are described wherein a first path including an amplifier may be bypassed by a second path including only passive elements and for gain states smaller than 0 dB. In such electronic circuits, a phase shifter included in the second path can be adjusted to address the required phase shift among various gain states.
