Abstract
In accordance with an embodiment, method for generating an output signal of an amplifier having an increased signal to noise ratio includes receiving a first signal at an input terminal of the amplifier that is not part of a differential input. The input terminal of the amplifier is a sole input terminal of the amplifier. The first signal has an externally received portion and a feedback portion. A first amplified signal is generated at an output of the amplifier. High frequency components of the first amplified signal may be filtered. A feedback signal is generated at the sole input terminal of the amplifier in response to the first output signal.
