Abstract
An input signal processing system is described. It comprises a first transconductance device having a first input, second input, and an output, wherein the first input is coupled to receive the input signal; a first resistor coupled to a first input of the first transconductance device, wherein the first resistor converts the input current signal to an input voltage signal; a first voltage-current converter coupled to the output, the second input, the resistor, and a low voltage supply, wherein the first voltage-current converter is operative for converting the input voltage signal to a input current signal; and a low pass filter having an input coupled to the voltage converter for filtering noise from the input current signal.
