The application scene of the embodiment of the application is an amplitude control circuit of a frequency source. The amplitude control circuit controls the amplitude of the output signal by controlling the electrically tunable attenuator 1. The common analog Automatic Level Control (ALC) generates a control signal of attenuation multiple through a negative feedback circuit formed by analog components, the speed is slower, and the quick switching requirement of the amplitude of the agile signal can not be met.

When the agile signal is not required to be generated, the frequency source is switched into the analog loop with higher accuracy in controlling the amplitude, so that the agile signal is not required to be output, and the signal with more accurate amplitude can be output.
As another preferred embodiment, one end of the coupler 2 for outputting the first output signal is connected to a digitally controlled attenuator, which is controlled by the controller 12; the first output signal forms a second output signal through a numerical control attenuator; the controller 12 is further configured to control the attenuation multiple of the digitally controlled attenuator according to the detection voltage, thereby adjusting the amplitude of the second output signal.
The numerical control attenuator added in the embodiment of the application is used for further attenuating the output signal at the later stage. For satisfying the need to output signals of a wider range of amplitudes.
As another preferred embodiment, as an alternative real-time manner, the digitally controlled attenuator includes a plurality of units connected in series with each other, each unit including two fourth SPDT switches and a sub-attenuator for amplifying the signal passing through the unit, the fourth SPDT switches being used to control whether the signal passes through the sub-attenuator.
Specifically, the fourth SPDT switch of the unit is connected to the sub-attenuator, i.e. the unit is a corresponding attenuation factor for attenuating the sub-attenuator. Not connected to the sub-attenuators, the unit is not used for attenuation.
Taking the example that the digital control attenuator comprises four units, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of the digital control attenuator comprising four units according to the embodiment of the present application, the attenuators of the four units in fig. 2 respectively correspond to a dynamic range of 10dB and a step of 10dB, a dynamic range of 20dB and a step of 20dB, a dynamic range of 40dB and a step of 40dB, and a dynamic range of 70dB and a step of 70dB. And then the dynamic range is better than 100dB by matching with the electrically-controlled attenuator 1 with the dynamic range of 30dB and the stepping of 0.5dB, and the stepping of 0.5dB attenuation can be realized.
As other optional real-time modes, the numerical control attenuator is connected with the third operational amplifier;
