The present invention is a novel and improved AGC circuit which is generically configurable to accommodate a variety of AGC amplifier configurations to enhance IP3 performance and reduce required amplifier current, while providing a received power estimate which remains valid regardless of how the gain or attenuation is distributed among the various amplifiers. A generic control circuit maintains this power estimate in a single overall gain amplification value by distributing gain to at least two amplifier stages in response to that value. By programming or hard coding a few key parameters, a generic control circuit can control a wide variety of amplifier configurations.
