<p>An integrated dynamic amplitude limiter is disclosed for limiting the deviation of a transmitter operating at audio frequencies. In an amplitude limiter according to the invention, a dynamic AGC amplifier block (1), a level clipper block (3) and a block (2) which forms the higher and lower limiting levels are implemented using switched capacitors (SC), and they are formed into an integrated amplitude limiter circuitry, and the voltages which define the higher and lower limiting levels are formed from the voltage of the band-gap voltage reference (Vbgref), which voltage is formed in relation to the virtual ground voltage of the amplifier circuitry, in which case the limiting levels are independent of the supply voltage (Vdd).</p> |
