IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems I: Regular Papers(2023)
摘要
This paper presents a
$G_{m}$
-C integrator-implanted DC servo loop (GMCI
$^{2}$
-DSL) and a bulk-driven ripple reduction loop (BD-RRL) for bio-potential readout analog-front-end (AFE) amplifier. The proposed bio-potential readout AFE amplifier employs the GMCI
$^{2}$
-DSL and BD-RRL to achieve low noise and significant total harmonic distortion (THD) with small ripple amplitude. A prototype has been taped out using a 0.18-
$\mu$
m standard CMOS technology, and the core circuit occupies 880
$\mu$
m
$\times$
630
$\mu$
m. The mid-band gain is about 40 dB with a 1.3-V supply voltage, and the chip’s quiescent power is 10.8
$\mu$
W. The measured results show that the input-referred noise density is 26 nV/
$\surd$
Hz, and the input-referred integrated noise in the range from 0.5 Hz to 500 Hz is 0.93
$\mu$
$V_{rms}$
. The measured THD of a 5-m
$V_{pp}$
input sinusoidal signal at 5.1 Hz is
$-$
64.3 dB without any input offset. The amplitude of residue ripple is achieved as 197.8
$\mu$
V around chopping frequency (
$f_{ch}$
) by ripple suppression. High-fidelity and real-time electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are acquired.
