Abstract

In this work, a folded cascode topology has been used to design an op-amp in order to optimize biopotential amplifier. This paper aims to design a fully differential amplifier in the direction of achieving high gain, high CMRR, high PSRR and low noise. In this work, 90 nm technology is used for simulations which are carried out using Tanner EDA 16.0 tool and these results are compared with related work performed using 180 and 350 nm technology. With the help of this work, an instrumentation amplifier can be designed which has low noise, low common mode gain, higher stability with supply variation, etc. and biopotential amplifier can also be designed for ECG machine, neural recording, etc. In this work the proposed results have been analytically verified with theory and compared with the related work.
