Methods and systems for continuous gain control in a feedback transimpedance amplifier (TIA) may include: in a TIA including a gain stage, a feedback resistance for the gain stage, a current sense resistor, and a feedback current control circuit: receiving an input current at an input of the gain stage: directing a current through the current sense resistor to the feedback current control circuit, and generating an output voltage proportional to the input current and a gain of the TIA. The gain may be configured by providing a proportion (α) of the current through the feedback current control circuit to the input of the gain stage. The proportion α of the current from the feedback current control circuit to the input of the gain stage may be configured by applying a differential voltage to control terminals of a transistor pair in the feedback current control circuit.
