An Energy-Efficient Micropower Neural Recording Amplifier
TLDR
We present an ultralow-power neural recording amplifier that achieves input-referred noise near the theoretical limit of any amplifier using a differential pair as an input stage. Expand

Digital selection and analogue amplification coexist in a cortex-inspired silicon circuit
Digital circuits such as the flip-flop use feedback to achieve multi-stability and nonlinearity to restore signals to logical levels, for example 0 and 1. Analogue feedback circuits are generally… Expand
