摘要:
A switched current bilinear integrator comprising interconnected current memory cells (M1, M2) in which during a first phase of a clock cycle an input current is fed to the inputs of the current memory cells and during a second phase of a clock cycle an inverted version (A1) of the input current is fed to the inputs of the current memory cells. The output of the integrator is obtained by combining the output (optionally scaled) of the first current memory cell (M1) with an inverted (A2) version of the output (optionally scaled) of the second memory cell (M2) . A lossy integrator may be formed by feeding back to the input a scaled version of the current stored in the second current memory cell (N2) and an inverted, scaled version of the current stored in the first memoy cell (M1).
摘要:
In a mixed analog and digital integrated circuit for physiological signal instrumentation such as electrocardiographs, electromyographs, and electroencephalographs, an AD converter (346) adds an analog signal input (416) to an analog offset input to produce a digital signal output (724), and an offset means (736,740) generates the analog offset input if the digital output exceeds a threshold (1006,1008) for a predetermined number of A/D conversion. The integrated circuit has five signal channels, each with analog amplification and analog to digital conversion. The channels can be configured for various combinations of input signal amplification, input signal summation, analog output driving, and AC impedance measurement. The integrated circuit has two digital serial input lines and two digital serial output lines, all designed for direct connection to optical couplers. Channel configuration, gain, and other parameters are externally controllable by a serial digital input signal. Up to six compatible devices can be serially connected in a chain.

An integrator circuit utilizing an operational amplifier (19) and switched capacitor elements (11.13 and 16) in place of resistors in such a manner as to provide compensation for voltage offsets present in the operational amplifier resulting in an output voltage (V OUT ) free from the effects of voltage offsets inherent in operational amplifiers.
摘要:
The switched capacitor comprises a capacitor CA 1 and a switching element S which can be periodically changed over for charging CA, with an input voltage V IN and for discharging the capacitor CA, to one input end (A) of an operational amplifier OP,. Another input end of OP, is connected to a reference potential (ground) and an integrating capacitor CB, is connected between an output end of OP, and the input end (A). Switching elements S 2 and S 3 are connected to input end (A) and the output end of OP 1 . The switching elements can be closed to make the potentials of the input end (A) and the output end of OP 1 equal to the reference potential (ground). This prevents potentials at input end (A) and the output end becoming unfixed when the integrator is out of operation, and ensures rapid stabilization of operation when the integrator is brought into operation.

摘要:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide various sampling networks for switched-capacitor integrators, which may be used in switched-capacitor analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). Rather than having both an input sampling capacitor and a reference sampling capacitor, certain aspects of the present disclosure use a shared sampling capacitor for the reference voltage and the input voltage, thereby reducing ADC input-referred noise, decreasing op amp area and power, and avoiding anti-aliasing filter insertion loss. Furthermore, by sampling the reference voltage during the sampling phase and sampling the input voltage during the integration phase using the shared sampling capacitor, a high-bandwidth reference buffer need not be used for the reference voltage.
摘要:
An integrator circuit (10) receiving a current signal from the anode terminal of a photodiode (PD) includes a two-input, two-output full-differential amplifier (A0), capacitors (C01, C02), switches (S01, S02, S11, S12), and an additional capacitor (Ca). The capacitor (C01) and the switch (S01) are connected in parallel between the negative and positive input terminals of the full-differential amplifier (A0). The negative input terminal of the full-differential amplifier (A0) is connected with the anode terminal of the photodiode (PD). The capacitor (C02) and the switch (S02) are connected in parallel between the positive and negative input terminals of the full-differential amplifier (A0). The positive input terminal of the full-differential amplifier (A0) is connected with the additional capacitor (Ca) whose capacitance is substantially equal to the junction capacitance of the photodiode (PD).
