dc.description.abstract | In this article, a capacitively-coupled neural amplifier based on a new high gain low-noise amplifier is proposed. By utilizing a cross-coupled structure, the open-loop gain of the amplifier is boosted. This modification leads to higher closed-loop gain of the amplifier only with one-stage and reduces the gain error. Besides, the input impedance of the amplifier is boosted by a factor of 100 at 100 Hz using a power-efficient technique. A detail analysis to model the high frequency behaviour of input impedance boosting technique is carried out to show and formulate a limitation. The amplifier is designed and simulated in a commercially available 0.18 μm CMOS technology. The Bandwidth of the amplifier is from 0.5 to 10 kHz and the midband gain is 52 dB. The total input-referred noise is 3.26 μV rms in the bandwidth. The noise and power efficiency factor of proposed amplifier is 1.4 and 1.7, respectively. The superior performance of the amplifier is achieved by increasing the input capacitor value and exploiting noise efficient amplifier. Furthermore, to show the robustness of the proposed structure, a Monte Carlo simulation is carried out for process variation and mismatch. The mean value of the input impedance and CMRR are 10.5 GΩ and 90 dB, respectively. Finally, the total area consumption without pads is 0.03 mm 2 . | en_US |
