Abstract

A low-voltage, ultra-low power fully differential low-pass filter for bio-signal applications using multiple-input fully differential operational transconductance amplifiers (OTA) is presented in this article. The multiple inputs of OTA can be achieved using multiple-input dynamic threshold MOS transistor (MIDT-MOST) technique. The novelty of this work is to exhibit the proposed filter using multiple-input OTAs, which leads to a reduction in the number of active OTAs and power consumption. The fourth-order low-pass filter that is cascaded by two second-order filters has been presented. The fourth-order low-pass filter is designed and simulated in the Cadence environment using the 0.18 μm CMOS technology from TSMC at a supply voltage of 0.5 V. The simulation results show that the filter consumes 16 nW of power at a bandwidth of 110 Hz, has a total harmonic distortion (THD) of 1 % at 204.96 mV input amplitude, and provides dynamic range of 69.24 dB. These results indicate that the proposed low-pass filter can be applied to bio-signal processing applications.

用于生物信号应用的 16-nW 0.5-V 低通滤波器

本文介绍了一种用于生物信号应用的低电压、超低功耗全差分低通滤波器，它采用了多输入全差分运算跨导放大器（OTA）。多输入动态阈值 MOS 晶体管（MIDT-MOST）技术可实现 OTA 的多输入。这项工作的新颖之处在于利用多输入 OTA 展示了所提出的滤波器，从而减少了有源 OTA 的数量和功耗。介绍了由两个二阶滤波器级联而成的四阶低通滤波器。该四阶低通滤波器是在 Cadence 环境下设计和仿真的，采用了台积电的 0.18 μm CMOS 技术，电源电压为 0.5 V。仿真结果表明，该滤波器在 110 Hz 带宽下的功耗为 16 nW，在 204.96 mV 输入振幅下的总谐波失真 (THD) 为 1%，动态范围为 69.24 dB。这些结果表明，所提出的低通滤波器可用于生物信号处理应用。
