Automatic gain control circuit, data communication device and automatic gain control method

摘要

An automatic gain control circuit includes a first portion which calculates a first error amount, and a second portion which calculates a second error amount. Both calculated error amount is sent to a determination module. Further, an integrator integrates an error amount, a difference between a power of an input signal and an average power of an eye pattern for example. The determination determines whether the integrated error amount exceeds a predetermined value or not, and output either of the first error amount and the second error amount based on the determination.
