Abstract
A method according to one embodiment includes receiving an increment signal at a first integrator when a second integrator overflows; receiving a decrement signal at the first integrator when the second integrator underflows; and incrementing or decrementing a gain applied to an analog signal based on receipt of the increment or decrement signal. A system according to one embodiment includes a first integrator configured to cause incrementing of a gain applied to an analog signal based on receipt of an increment signal when a second integrator overflows, the first integrator being configured to cause decrementing of the gain applied to the analog signal based on receipt of a decrement signal when the second integrator underflows; and the second integrator.
