A low pass filter (100) includes a first amplifier stage (110) and a second amplifier stage (120). The first amplifier stage (110) includes a differential operational amplifier (130), wherein the first amplifier stage is arranged to process a differential input signal to generate a differential intermediate signal, the differential input signal having a first input signal (DIN1) and a second input signal (DIN2), and the differential intermediate signal having a first intermediate signal (DM1) and a second intermediate signal (DM2). The second amplifier stage (120) has no common-mode feedback and is arranged to process the differential intermediate signal to generate a differential output signal, wherein the differential output signal has a first output signal (DOUT1) corresponding to the first input signal (DIN1) and a second output signal (DOUT2) corresponding to the second input signal (DIN2). Since the noisy common-mode feedback is removed from the second amplifier stage, the overall common-mode noise of the low pass filter can be decreased.

摘要:
A MEMS sensor (1) comprises a MEMS transducer (10) being coupled to a MEMS interface circuit (20). The MEMS interface circuit (20) comprises a bias voltage generator (100), a differential amplifier (200), a capacitor (300) and a feedback control circuit (400). The bias voltage generator (100) generates a bias voltage (Vbias) for operating the MEMS transducer. The variable capacitor (300) is connected to one of the input nodes (1200a) of the differential amplifier (200). At least one of the output nodes (A200a, A200b) of the differential amplifier is coupled to a base terminal (T110) of an output filter (110) of the bias voltage generator (100). Any disturbing signal from the bias voltage generator (100) is a common-mode signal that is divided equally on the input nodes (1200a, 1200b) of the differential amplifier (200) and is therefore rejected.
