A circuit includes an amplifier and a feedback network coupled between the input and the output of the amplifier. The feedback network includes a plurality of parallel coupled branches, each branch having a first selection switch coupled to the input, a second selection switch coupled to the output, and an impedance between the first and second selection switches. Each branch includes a plurality of signal feedback paths coupled in parallel, each having a tuning switch coupled between the first selection switch and the second selection switch of that branch. A control unit is coupled to the feedback network and configured to vary a gain of the amplifier by selectively placing the first and second selection switches of each branch in a conductive state or a non-conductive state and selectively activating respective tuning switches of any branch having first and second selection switches in the conductive state.

A transimpedance amplifier includes a T-coil in its feedback loop to expand its bandwidth. The transimpedance amplifier includes an amplifier that converts and amplifies an input current signal to an intermediary voltage signal. One terminal of the T-coil is coupled to a resistor in the feedback loop which is coupled to the input of the amplifier. Another terminal of the T-coil is coupled to the output of an amplifier. The bridge point of the T-coil is coupled to the output terminal of the transimpedance amplifier which outputs an output voltage. The T-coil includes two inductors that are mutually coupled such that a current is induced to compensate for the leakage current caused by the parasitic capacitance of the transimpedance amplifier.
