Charge amplifier circuit with a high output dynamic range for a microelectromechanical sensor
Abstract:
A charge amplifier circuit is provided. The charge amplifier circuit is couplable to a transducer that generates an electrical charge that varies with an external stimulus. The charge amplifier circuit includes an amplification stage having an input node, couplable to the transducer, and an output node. The amplification stage biases the input node at a first direct current (DC) voltage. The charge amplifier circuit includes a feedback circuit, which includes a feedback capacitor, electrically coupled between the input and output nodes of the amplification stage. The feedback circuit includes a resistor electrically coupled to the input node, and a level-shifter circuit, electrically coupled between the resistor and the output node. The level-shifter circuit biases the output node at a second DC voltage and as a function of a difference between the second DC voltage and a reference voltage.
