Patent attributes
A transimpedance amplifier (TIA) circuit disclosed includes an input terminal, a first TIA circuit, a second TIA circuit, a field effect transistor (FET), and a gain control circuit. The first TIA circuit outputs a voltage signal from a first output in accordance with an input current received at a first input electrically connected to the input terminal. The second TIA circuit outputs a reference signal from a second output. The FET varies a resistance between a first current terminal and a second current terminal in accordance with a control signal applied to a control terminal. The first current terminal is electrically connected to the input terminal. The second current terminal is electrically connected to the second output of the second TIA circuit. The gain control circuit detects an amplitude of the voltage signal and generates the control signal according to a detection result of the amplitude.
