<p>A transmitter suitable for a CDMA mobile terminal is provided which realizes a circuit with a small size and low consumption power which suppresses the effect of carrier leak in the state where a transmission output is controlled at a low level. A carrier control circuit comprises a reference voltage generator, a comparator, and a controller. The comparator determines whether the level of a control signal is higher or lower than a reference voltage. The controller controls the gain of a local variable amplifier such that a distortion characteristic of a transmission output is optimal when the control signal is higher than the reference voltage, and controls the gain of the local variable amplifier such that the effect of carrier leak on the transmission output is suppressed when the control signal is lower than the reference voltage based on the determination result of the comparator.</p> |
