The overall performance of a current sense amplifier system may be improved by increasing the common mode rejection of the system. In particular, improved current sense amplifiers may be configured to use a first signal path coupled to the amplifier and a first input terminal, wherein the first signal path is configured to measure the current through a device by generating a voltage proportional to the measured current, wherein the generated voltage comprises a small signal voltage with a large common mode voltage, and a second signal path coupled to the amplifier and the first input terminal, wherein the second signal path is configured to reduce the common mode of the generated voltage by level shifting the generated voltage to reduce the common mode voltage.

The overall performance of a current sense amplifier system may be improved by increasing the common mode rejection of the system. In particular, improved current sense amplifier systems of this disclosure may be configured to use a first ADC path to measure a current flowing through a device, a second ADC path to measure a common mode value, a memory element to store a calibration value, and a summer block to output a voltage proportional to the measured current through the device by correcting a voltage value output by the first ADC path based on the measured common mode value of the second ADC path and the stored calibration value.

An electronic device includes a transimpedance amplifier stage having an amplifier end stage of the class AB type and a preamplifier stage coupled between an output of a frequency transposition stage and an input of the amplifier end stage. A self-biased common-mode control stage is configured to bias the preamplifier stage.

A differential amplifier may, when connected to a positive or negative supply voltage and to a ground voltage, provide a differential pair of outputs signals at a differential output that are an amplification of a differential pair of input signals at a differential input. A differential input stage may receive the differential pair of input signals from the differential input and may include a first transistor associated with one of the input signals and a second transistor associated with the other input signal. A differential output stage may generate the differential pair of output signals at the differential output and may include a third transistor associated with one of the output signals and a fourth transistor associated with the other output signal. The first, second, third, and fourth transistors may be all P type or all N type. The differential pair of output signals may have a common mode that is: near the ground voltage when the first, second, third, and fourth transistors are all N type and the supply voltage is positive with respect to the ground voltage; near the supply voltage when the first, second, third, and fourth transistors are all P type and the supply voltage is positive with respect to the ground voltage; near the ground voltage when the first, second, third, and fourth transistors are all P type and the supply voltage is negative with respect to the ground voltage; or near the supply voltage when the first, second, third, and fourth transistors are all N type and the supply voltage is negative with respect to the ground voltage.
