Abstract

There is provided a variable gain circuit system which is inductorless and capable of achieving a high gain and a wide band by elements for achieving variable gain to prevent decreasing a gain or deteriorating the band. The variable gain circuit includes: transistors; a resistor connected as a load of each transistor; a voltage source applying a bias voltage to each gate of the transistors; a switch selectively connecting the voltage source or a ground potential to each gate of the transistors in accordance with gain setting; and a current source connected to a common input. A drain of each transistor is connected to an input of a circuit in a subsequent stage.
