Abstract

Advancements in integrated circuit (IC) technology and circuit design are enabling devices to replace complex biological applications. Despite this progress, achieving necessary functionality at low power levels is crucial for fully integrated systems. Biomedical devices like pacemakers, which require ongoing battery charging, operate at nanowatt power levels over several years. To ensure long-term pacemaker survival, an Analog Front End (AFE) with low to moderate power consumption and high precision is essential. The front-end Instrumentation Amplifier (INA) is vital for signal acquisition, significantly improving the effectiveness of ECG signal collection systems.The primary aim of this research is to develop an integrated ECG instrumentation amplifier (INA) that can deliver top-notch performance while keeping noise and power consumption to a minimum. This amplifier will enable seamless monitoring of the ECG signal without interruptions. Using an AC connected Common Mode Feedback system [1]. in conjunction with an Operational Trans-conductance Amplifier (OTA) that uses a Chopper stabilization technique, the study's band pass filtering response within the ECG signal frequency range of 0-100Hz is obtained as anticipated. CMOS 45 nm technology is used throughout the entire process using Mentor Graphics EDA Tools.
