A wireless communication device including a radio frequency (RF) circuit, a ZIF transceiver and a baseband processor. The ZIF transceiver includes an RF mixer circuit that converts the RF signal to a baseband input signal, a summing junction that subtracts a DC offset from the baseband input signal to provide an adjusted baseband input signal, and a baseband amplifier that receives the adjusted baseband input signal and that asserts an amplified input signal based on a gain adjust signal. The baseband processor includes gain control logic, DC control logic and a gain interface. The gain control logic receives the amplified input signal, estimates input signal power and asserts the gain adjust signal in an attempt to keep the input signal power at a target power level. The DC control logic estimates an amount of DC in the amplified input signal and provides the DC offset in an attempt to reduce DC in the amplified input signal. The gain interface converts gain levels between the gain control logic and the DC control logic. The RF signal may include in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) portions, where the RF mixer circuit splits I and Q baseband input signals from the RF signal. Operation is substantially identical for both I and Q channels. The DC control logic operates to remove or otherwise eliminate DC from the received signal that is provided to decoders in the baseband processor.
