A very-wide-dynamic-range amplifier with very low-noise in the high-gain mode and very high-input-overload in the low-gain mode. The amplifier utilizes two parallel signal paths, one a high-gain, low-noise path and the other a low-gain, high-input-overload path. Each path includes a gain-control capability so that the gain of each path, and the contribution of the gain of each path to the overall gain of the amplifier may be smoothly varied from a very low-gain to a very high-gain. Specific embodiments including input impedance matching capabilities are disclosed.
