This letter proposes an instrumentation amplifier for neural recording applications whose measured noise efficiency factor (NEF) is 2.2. A discrete-time parametric amplifier is adopted as a preamplification stage to lower the input-referred noise, thus imp ...
We explore the unconventional wave scattering properties of non-Hermitian systems in which amplification or damping are induced by time-periodic modulation. These non-Hermitian time-Floquet systems are capable of nonreciprocal operations in the frequency d ...
Among hydrodynamically unstable flows, the amplifier-flows are characterized by their large amplification potential in presence of external noise. Since amplifiers do not have an intrinsic dynamics, a chosen forcing can be applied to eventually control the ...
Current-mode signal processing offers superior linearity and flexibility in front-end implementation. The linearity of a low-input-impedance Trans-Impedance Amplifier (TIA), which is used as a buffer stage that follows a passive mixer, is important in dete ...
This paper proposes a 2.2 noise efficiency factor (NEF) instrumentation amplifier for neural recording applications. A parametric amplifier based on the MOS C-V characteristic is designed as a pre-amplifier stage, lowering the input referred noise of the f ...
This paper presents a low power successive approximation register (SAR) ADC and its front-end automatic gain control (AGC) amplifier designed in 65nm CMOS technology. Digitally controlled variable gain amplifier (VGA) in AGC loop is used to maximize the dy ...
Directional amplifiers are an important resource in quantum-information processing, as they protect sensitive quantum systems from excess noise. Here, we propose an implementation of phase-preserving and phase-sensitive directional amplifiers for microwave ...
Active retrodirective antenna arrays find a variety of use in applications involving wireless communication and sensing systems. This article presents a novel active version of the phase-conjugating Rotman lens with negative conductance amplifiers for appl ...
This letter presents an energy-and-area-efficient ac-coupled front-end for the multichannel recording of wideband neural signals. The proposed unit conditions local held and action potentials using an inverter-based capacitively coupled low-noise amplifier ...
The Cremer’s impedance theoretical framework has been used for years to optimally design acousticliners for the aeronautic industry, such as honeycomb liners. This passive mean of sound absorption,which consists in rather thin (a few centimeters) honeycomb ...
