5.3.2 Automatic Gain Control (AGC)

If the receiver system is to be used within an application that has an input signal with inconsistent amplitudes, it may be necessary to implement some form of Automatic Gain Control (AGC) to manage the signal before it reaches the C2000's ADC input. The AGC would be a closed-loop feedback system that measures the amplitude of the input signal, or a related response, and based on what is observed amplify or attenuate the signal.

The AFE031's internal PGAs could be leveraged to dynamically amplify or attenuate the signal to be within the desired amplitude range. For gain select times of the two PGAs along the RX path, see the AFE031 Datasheet .

Another approach would be to perform the AGC externally before the signal enters the C2000/AFE031 system. However, this requires additional circuitry involving a variable gain amplifier (VGA) to be added.
