- A complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) variable gain amplifier includes: a cascode amplifier including a common source field effect transistor and a common gate field effect transistor in a cascode structure; a first current generation unit connected in parallel to a drain of the common gate field effect transistor and configured to vary transconductance of the cascode amplifier; a second current generation unit connected to a common source of the cascode amplifier and configured to control a bias current of the cascode amplifier; a current control unit configured to generate a current control signal for the first and second current generation units; and a load stage connected in series to a drain of the cascode amplifier and configured to output an output current, which is varied by the overall transconductance of the cascode amplifier, as a differential output voltage.
