Realizations of Instrumentation Amplifiers

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Analog Circuits and Signal Processing ((ACSP))

In chapters 2 and 3, the theory necessary for designing low-offset CMOS amplifiers was presented. In the previous chapter, implementations of operational amplifiers designed using this theory were discussed. This chapter focuses on realizations of the indirect current-feedback instrumentation amplifiers discussed in chapter 4.

This chapter focuses on two realizations of indirect current-feedback instrumentation amplifiers. The first is a chopper and auto-zero offset-stabilized indirect current-feedback instrumentation amplifier. The second is an indirect current-feedback instrumentation amplifier for high-side current-sense amplifier applications.
