Abstract :
A time-domain-based amplifier concept is proposed to obtain high-voltage gains with low power consumption and at an ultra-low supply voltage of 0.35 V. A prototype instrumentation amplifier designed using the proposed technique in the 180 nm technology consumes 210 nW of power and 0.1 mm2 of the active area.
