Abstract

To enable processing of a signal at an appropriate level.An analog section in which an acquired signal is processed in an analog fashion and a digital section in which the signal processed in the analog section is digitally processed are included, wherein the analog section includes an adjustment unit that adjusts a gain discretely and the digital section includes a digital step compensation unit that compensates for discrete gain adjustments in the analog section. The digital step compensation unit responds to a transient step in which a gain steeply converts in the analog section and compensates with inverse characteristics of a transient response. The present technology can be applied to an AGC (Automatic Gain Control) system.
