Chopper amplifier
Abstract:
A chopper amplifier circuit includes a first amplifier path, a second amplifier path, and a third amplifier path. The first amplifier path includes chopper circuitry configured to modulate an input signal and an offset voltage at a chopping frequency, and ripple reduction circuitry configured to attenuate the chopping frequency in a signal in the first amplifier path. The second amplifier path includes a feedforward gain stage, and is configured to apply higher gain to intermediate signal frequencies than is applied in the first amplifier path. The third amplifier path includes a feedforward gain stage, and is configured to apply higher gain to high signal frequencies than is applied in the first amplifier path and the second amplifier path. The intermediate signal frequencies are lower than the high signal frequencies.
