Abstract

A switched-capacitor DC blocking amplifier is disclosed. In an embodiment, an integrated circuit is provided that includes an amplifier having an amplifier input and an amplifier output, a capacitor connected to the amplifier input and configured to receive an input signal, and a switched capacitor circuit coupled to provide a resistance between the amplifier input and the amplifier output. In one implementation, the switched capacitor circuit is configured with a feed forward circuit to reduce aliasing. In another implementation, the switched capacitor circuit includes a switched impedance circuit to reduce noise.
