PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an amplifying device which maintains linearity of a gain and a control method thereof. SOLUTION: The device is provided with: first amplifying parts (91 to 97) for changing its gain in a stepwise manner; a second amplifying part 99 which is connected in series to the first amplifying parts (91 to 97), and changes its gain in a stepwise manner; and a gain control part 100 which controls gain setting of the first amplifying parts (91 to 97) and the second amplifying part 99. The first amplifying parts (91 to 97) has a gain variable range necessary for amplifying the input signal to a predetermined desired level. The second amplifying part 99 has a gain variable range narrower than that of the first amplifying part. The gain control part 100 changes uses the second amplifying part preferentially over the first amplifying part to change the gain setting. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
