An EGFET Based Common Source Amplifier as a Low-Frequency Instrumentation Amplifier for Sensitivity Measurement on RuO₂ Lactic Acid Biosensor

A Modified Noise Analysis of a Common Source ̶ Common Gate Low Noise Transconductance Amplifier for Sub-micron Technologies

This paper is based on analysis of a common source - common gate low noise transconductance amplifier (CS-CG LNTA). Conventional noise analyses equations are modified by considering to the low output impedance of the sub-micron transistors and also, parasitic gate-source capacitance. The calculated equations are more accurate than calculated equations in other works. Also, analyses show that th...

Design of an Instrumentation Amplifier

Lock - In Amplifier based on Virtual Instrumentation

When a slowly varying voltage is detected the main problem is the noise especially when it is several times greater than the signal itself. A lock-in amplifier is used to measure the small signals in presence of noise. The aim of this paper is to do a digital lock-in amplifier based on virtual instrument language LabVIEW and later on, it will replace a practice of a subject from the Physics’ de...

Operational Transconductance Amplifier for Low Frequency Application

This paper presents the design of CMOS operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) with very small transconductance (of order of nano ampere per volt), which uses in very low frequency continuous time filters. This design uses current division technique to reduce the transconductance of OTA. This design is simulated in SPICE tool using 0.25μm technology model file.

A Concurrent Dual-Band Low Noise Amplifier for GNSS Receivers

In this paper, a new design of concurrent dual-band Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for multi-band single-channel Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers is proposed. This new structure is able to operate concurrently at frequency of 1.2 and 1.57 GHz. Parallel and series resonance parts are employed in the input matching in order to achieve concurrent performance. With respect to used pse...
