Abstract :
-This paper proposes a novel readout circuit of ion sensitive field effect transistor (ISFET) with temperature compensation using two threshold voltage (VTH) extractor circuits. The first VTH extractor with ISFET gives the pH reading and the second VTH extractor with depletion-type MOSFET (DMOSFET) provides the temperature compensation. The entire circuit uses only 20 transistors and dissipates a power of 889.3 muW. This design offers a sensitivity of 54 mV/pH and an improved temperature coefficient (T.C.) of 0.02 mV/degC.
