Abstract

The objective of this work was to design a versatile readout circuit for patch-type wearable devices consisting of a Transimpedance Amplifier (TIA). The TIA performs Current to Voltage (I–V) conversion, the most widely used technique for amperometry and impedance measurement for various types of electrochemical sensors. The proposed readout circuit employs a digitally controllable feedback resistor (Rf) technique in the TIA to improve accuracy, which can be utilized in a variety of electrochemical sensors within a current range of 0.1 µA–100 µA. It is designed to accommodate multiple sensors simultaneously to track multiple target analytes for high accuracy and versatile usage. The readout circuit consists of low power operational amplifier (op–amp) and digital circuit blocks, is designed and fabricated with Magna 0.18 µm Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology, which provides low power consumption and a high degree of integration. The design has a small size of 0.282 mm2 and low power consumption of 0.38 mW with a 3.3 V power supply, which are desirable factors in wearable device applications.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
