A CMOS amplifier with differential input and output was designed for very high common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) and low offset. This design was implemented by the 0.35 μm CMOS technology provided by TSMC. With three stages of amplification and by balanced self-bias, a voltage gain of 80 dB with a CMRR of 130 dB was achieved. The related input offset was as low as 0.6 μV. In addition, the bias circuits were designed to be less sensitive to the power supply. It was expected that the whole amplifier was then more independent of process variations. This fact was confirmed in this study by simulation. With the simulation results, it is promising to exhibit an amplifier with high performances for biomedical applications.

In this paper, a high performance current-mode instrumentation amplifier has been proposed with low noise, low power and high CMRR features. The proposed design can adjust the gain with an external resistor for the processing of various biomedical signals. To reduce the noise of the amplifier, two design methods including PMOS input and lateral pnp BJT input have been implemented to improve the prior arts. To meet the single power supply need, a biomedical voltage level shifter is also proposed for low cost CMOS implementation. Based on the post-layout simulation results, the presented current-mode amplifier achieves high CMRR over 120 dB, power consumption of 61 uW at 1.8-V supply using standard 0.18-um CMOS technology.
