Abstract
This paper presents a high-precision single-ended-current-to-differential-voltage (SC-DV) converter that is used in the reconfigurable neural recording front-end. For processing neural signals detected by current-mode sensors in a differential way, a single-ended-current signal is converted into a differential-voltage signal with low power consumption and low-noise performances. The proposed SC-DV converter is constructed by employing complementary diode-connected loads, a folded stage, and a replica stage to reduce the common-to-differential conversion error (VError). Implemented in a 180-nm standard CMOS process, the proposed SC-DV converters consume tens-of-nW power per channel and provide a-few-pArms noise performance.
