摘要:
A continuous time sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter (CT ΣΔADC) including an integrator, which includes an operational amplifier having at least one input terminal that receives an input signal, a feedback mechanism operatively connected to the operational amplifier, at least one capacitor coupled to the operational amplifier and the feedback mechanism, a reset switch coupled to the at least one capacitor, the operational amplifier, and the feedback mechanism, and a single directional voltage-to-current converter coupled to the input terminal. The single directional voltage-to-current converter translates a differential signal voltage only to a differential signal current. The reset switch resets the feedback mechanism. The single directional voltage-to-current converter behaves a one-directional resistor. The integrator prevents current generation when there is a non-linear disturbance at the input terminal of the operational amplifier. The single directional voltage-to-current converter clips an input current that exceeds a threshold value.

A low noise, low power differential two-stage amplifier includes a first stage comprising a pair of electrical devices that sense an input signal difference across the pair of electrical devices; and a control feedback loop operatively connected to the first stage, wherein the first stage in combination with the control loop feedback is adapted to place an exact copy of the signal across a first pair of resistive components, wherein the first pair of resistive components are adapted to generate a differential signal current, wherein the control feedback loop is adapted to ensure that the differential signal current goes a second pair of resistive components to generate a voltage output. Preferably, the first and second pair of resistive components are in ratio to produce the exact copy of the signal with some gain at an output of the first stage.
