Summary:An example automatic gain control (AGC) circuit includes a base current-gain circuit having a programmable source degeneration resistance responsive to first bits of an AGC code word. The AGC circuit further includes a programmable current-gain circuit, coupled between an input and an output of the base current-gain circuit, having a programmable current source responsive to second bits of the AGC code word. The AGC circuit further includes a bleeder circuit, coupled to the output of the base current-gain circuit, having a programmable current source responsive to logical complements of the second bits of the AGC code word. The AGC circuit further includes a load circuit coupled to the output of the base current-gain circuit.
