A Driven Right Leg circuit or DRL circuit, also known as Right Leg Driving technique, is an electric circuit that is often added to biological signal amplifiers to reduce common-mode interference. Biological signal amplifiers such as ECG ( electrocardiogram ) EEG ( electroencephalogram ) or EMG circuits measure very small electrical signals ...
The amplitude of ECG ranges from 0.3 to 2 mV for the QRS complex, which is used to determine the interbeat interval from which the frequency is derived. The typical requirements for the amplifiers to be used in ECG include: [1] Low internal noise (<2 mV) High Input Impedance (Z in > 10 MΩ) Bandwidth ranging from 0.16–250 Hz
ECG voltages measured across the body are very small. This low voltage necessitates a low noise circuit, instrumentation amplifiers, and electromagnetic shielding. Simultaneous lead recordings: earlier designs recorded each lead sequentially, but current models record multiple leads simultaneously.
The Blackmer gain cell is an audio frequency voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA) circuit with an exponential control law. It was invented and patented by David E. Blackmer between 1970 and 1973. The four- transistor core of the original Blackmer cell contains two complementary bipolar current mirrors that perform log-antilog operations on input ...
In electronics, the common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) of a differential amplifier (or other device) is a metric used to quantify the ability of the device to reject common-mode signals, i.e. those that appear simultaneously and in-phase on both inputs. An ideal differential amplifier would have infinite CMRR, however this is not achievable in ...
The capacity of an isolation amplifier is a function of two key isolation amplifier specifications: The amplifier’s isolation breakdown voltage, which defines the absolute maximum common mode voltage that it will tolerate without damage. Specifications of 1,000 volts and more are common. The amplifier’s common mode rejection ratio (CMRR ...
A commonly used amplifier is the instrumentation amplifier. Instrumentation amplifiers such as the integrated circuit (IC) AD620 amplifier are able to amplify the difference between two different voltage inputs while maintaining little offset voltage and a high CMRR, allowing it to amplify low frequency signals while rejecting noise.
