This brief presents a synchronized feedback-type automatic gain control (AGC) architecture for SONET (synchronous optical network) OC-3 system which is suitable for scaled BJT or CMOS VLSI implementation, In this architecture, a second-order loop is utilized instead of a conventional loop, and a convenient methodology is presented for calculating the parameters of the AGC. Simulation results using micromodels in the HSPICE environment indicate that for a 20 dB dynamic range of input 77.76 MHz sinusoidal signal, the architecture yields an 80 kHz loop bandwidth and a constant 1 V-pp output magnitude.
