    This document discusses different types of bio amplifiers used to amplify biomedical signals including: 1. Differential amplifiers that output the difference between two input voltages. 2. Instrumentation amplifiers that provide high gain and impedance with high common mode rejection ratios. 3. Chopper amplifiers that modulate low frequency biomedical signals to high frequencies for processing before demodulating back to the original signal. 4. Isolation amplifiers used to electrically isolate biomedical input signals from output signals to prevent situations like internal cardiac interference.

    Bio Amplifiers

    Requirements :
    • Av should be > 100dB
    • Gain should be constant over the entire bandwidth
    • O/p impedance must be small
    • I/p impedance must > 2 M Ὡ
    • CMRR must be > 80dB
    Types:
    1. Differential amplifier
    2. Instrumentation amplifier
    3. Chopper amplifier
    4. Isolation amplifier
    (i) Differential Amplifier

    Vo = Va-Vb
    (ii) Instrumentation amplifier
    • It is used to provide high Gain
    and High Impedance
    • Amplifier 1 ans 2 are
    configured as Non Inverting
    amplifier
    • Amplifier 3 is configured as
    Differential amplifier
    Advantages:
    • Extremely high i/p impedance
    • CMRR is high
    • High Gain
    (iii) Chopper Amplifier
    •In this amplifier, The Analog signal which is of very low frequency is
    chopped in to square pulses of high frequency which is equal to the
    chopping rate
    •It is then processed and converted back to its original form
    •The only constraint is that the chopping rate must be at-least 10 times
    greater than the highest frequency of the signal under measurement
    •There are two types of Chopping amplifiers
    (i) Mechanical Chopper amplifier
    (ii) Non mechanical Chopper amplifier
    Chopper amplifier with mechanical switch
    Electronic Chopper amplifier
    (iv) Isolation AMplifier
    • To prevent situations like internal cardiac isolation amplifiers are used
    • The isolation amplifiers have very high isolation between the input
    and the output
