Zusammenfassung: | According to this embodiment of the present invention, a neural signal detection circuit includes: an amplifier unit for outputting a differential signal by adaptively adjusting a gain according to a size of a signal input by overlapping a neural signal and artifacts; a first ADC receiving an output signal of the amplifier unit and outputting a level code corresponding to a level of the output signal; a second ADC which compares and outputs the voltage difference formed by accumulating the difference of the differential signal; and an analog-to-digital converter including a logic circuit for outputting a digital code corresponding to the input signal by increasing or decreasing the level code according to an output of the second ADC. The amplifier unit adjusts the gain of the amplifier unit from the level code. Therefore, the present invention has a wide dynamic range, so that even when a signal with a large amplitude difference is input, the signal can be detected without being saturated.
