Abstract
Described herein is a front-end for a neural recording system that boosts input impedance of the front-end circuit. The front-end includes an amplifier and two choppers. A first input terminal of the first chopper may be coupled to a first output terminal from one or more signal sensors. A first input terminal of the second chopper may be coupled to a second output terminal from the signal sensors. A second input terminal of the first chopper may be coupled to a first output terminal of a feedback subsystem. A second input terminal of the second chopper may be coupled to a second output terminal of the feedback subsystem. The output terminals of each chopper may each be coupled to a different capacitor such that after switching, the voltage of each capacitor remains substantially the same, improving the input impedance of the circuit.
