Abstract

A system (100 or 200) includes a first AGC stage (102) having a programming input and a gain input. A second AGC stage (104 or 210 and 234) is coupled in a common path with the first AGC stage, the second AGC stage having a programming input and a gain input. The first and second AGC stages are programmed by respective programming signals to produce independent gain characteristics responsive to a common gain signal at their respective gain inputs.
