A balun inductorless wideband low noise amplifier (LNA) with active loads is proposed for multi-standard radio applications. The cancelling and current reuse techniques are combined to mitigate the need high power consumption in conventional LNAs. This adds a degree of freedom transconductance common gate stage (g mCG ). As result, lower g without degrading input matching, allows large scaling factor source (CS) technique. Post-layout simulation results LNA circuit 180 nm RF CMOS process...
The channel count of implantable neural interfaces has grown rapidly as brain-machine interface applications emerge from basic brain disorder monitoring, motor control, to voice reconstruction. However, limited on-implant power and area budget hinder the development multi-channel integration. As shown in Fig. 1, Although time-division multiplexing (TDM) before ADC [1], [2] alleviates consumption over architecture without TDM [3], recording front-end still occupies large on-chip area,...
