Abstract
A limiting amplifier includes a multiplicity of cascaded amplifier stages for amplifying an input signal for the amplifier. A further amplifier stage is supplied with a reference signal. On the basis of an output signal from the further amplifier stage, a control signal for adjusting a gain of at least one of the cascaded amplifier stages is produced.
