Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems for detecting molecules. In some embodiments, a system includes a multiplexer, a read amplifier coupled to the multiplexer, a digitizer coupled to the read amplifier, a first nanopore, a first sense electrode situated on a first side of the first nanopore, a first counter electrode situated on a second side of the first nanopore, a first shield at least partially surrounding the first sense electrode and coupled to the multiplexer, a first shield driver coupled to the first shield, drive circuitry coupled to the first sense electrode, and control logic coupled to the drive circuitry, the multiplexer, and to the digitizer. In some embodiments, the control logic is configured to control the drive circuitry and/or the multiplexer to select the first sense electrode and/or the first counter electrode, and obtain a digitized signal from the digitizer, the digitized signal representing a current through the first nanopore.
