Amplifier arrangement and method of signal amplification

摘要

An amplifier arrangement is proposed which has an amplifier with adjustable amplification having an output. An impedance transformer circuit is connected to the output. Said circuit is designed for transforming a high output impedance of the adjustable amplifier into a low impedance at its output. The amplifier arrangement contains at least two switchable elements having a reactance, which elements are connected in each case by a first terminal to the output of the impedance transformer circuit, and by a second terminal to a reference potential terminal. The switchable elements are designed for changing the impedance at the output of the impedance transformer circuit depending on a switch position of a switching means. A load impedance at the output of the amplifier is consequently varied by simple means when the output level of the amplifier changes.
