The growing consciousness in health, biomedical research area is becoming most sought-after to develop or design medical devices by bringing biomedical researchers and clinicians to solve many health issues. Biomedical electronics is the endorsement and resolution of many techniques in engineering powered biology and medicine. The medical imaging accounts the design and development of electrophysiological monitoring devices to examine the whole human body for proper diagnosis. The biomedical signals are low amplitude, low frequency, are to be amplified in the range of millihertz to kilohertz while rejecting the dc offsets, created a tremendous demand amongst neuroscience researchers and clinicians. In this design capacitive feedback, neural signal recording amplifier is designed using folded cascode operational transconductance amplifier (OTA). The neural amplifier uses an AC coupled input signal to segregate the DC offset voltages generated at electrode-nerve interface due to chemical reaction and AC coupled input also represses the flicker noise. A large resistor, implemented using two series MOS devices as pseudo resistors, used in parallel to capacitive feedback to exploit device off-resistance for DC feedback normalization. This article presents a bulk-driven, buffer-biased, gain-boosted amplifier for biomedical signal is designed using 90 nm CMOS technology to capture signal activity.
