Abstract

An analog baseband circuit includes first and second DC (direct current) offset cancellers and an offset canceller controller. The first DC offset canceller includes a first filter and a first PGA (programmable gain amplifier) with a first gain step for eliminating a first dc component from an input baseband signal. The second DC offset canceller includes a second filter and a second PGA with a second gain step less than the first gain step for eliminating a second dc component from an output of the first DC offset canceller. The offset canceller controller controls the first and second filters to operate in a fast mode when a gain of the first PGA is changed.
