Abstract :
This paper presents a monolithic low-power, low-noise analog front-end electroencephalogram (EEG) acquisition system. It draws only 500 μA from a standard 9 V battery, making it suitable for use in portable systems. Although fabricated in a standard CMOS technology, using current feedback techniques it achieves a CMRR of 100 dB while the total input noise referred to input is kept as low as 1.5 μV (RMS)
