In this paper, we present a novel instrumentation amplifier (INA) topology for mobile bio-medical data acquisition platforms. The proposed INA features PMOS-NMOS complimentary transistor input pair biased in sub-threshold region to effectively boost the transconductance of and reduce referred noise.
