[Ideas For Design]
Effective AGC Amplifier Can Be Built At A Nominal Cost
Using the circuit presented here, you can construct a very inexpensive AGC amplifier with the following features: a dynamic range greater than 50 dB; negligible distortion to the output waveform; fast attack and slow decay; an adjustable output level... — Contributing Author
