Abstract

A novel design of integrator with differential inputs suitable for bioelectric events is described. The main advantages of this integrator in comparison with the conventional differential integrators are that it uses a single RC network to control the integration action of the circuit, has higher quality factor and less equivalent input noise voltage. The obtained experimental and simulation results support the theoretical derivations
