Zusammenfassung: | A circuit in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention includes an instrumentation amplifier, a dynamically adjustable low pass filter, at least one monitor and a controller. The instrumentation amplifier includes a pair of buffered operational amplifiers that accept a pair of input signals, and a differential operational amplifier that outputs an output signal indicative of a difference between the pair of input signals. The dynamically adjustable low pass filter is configured to provide band limiting of the output signal at frequencies greater than a cutoff frequency. The monitor, or monitors, is/are configured to monitor a signal upstream of the instrumentation amplifier and/or a signal downstream of the instrumentation amplifier and output a monitor signal. The controller is configured to receive the monitor signal, or signals, and to dynamically adjust output voltage noise at frequencies greater than the crossover frequency of the multipath amplifiers and/or the cutoff frequency of the low pass filter based on the monitor signal, or signals. |
