摘要
A biopotential amplifier for single supply operation is presented. It uses a Driven Right Leg Circuit (DRL) to drive the patient's body to a DC common mode voltage, centering biopotential signals with respect to the amplifier's input voltage range. This scheme ensures proper range operation when a single power supply is used. The circuit described is especially suited for low consumption, battery-powered applications. requiring a single battery and avoiding switching voltage inverters to achieve dual supplies. The generic circuit is described and, as an example, a biopotential amplifier with a gain of 60 dB and a DC input range of +/- 200 mV was implemented using low power operational amplifiers. A Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) of 126 dB at 50 Hz was achieved without trimming. (C) 2001 IPEM. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
