A fifth order operational transconductance amplifier-C （OTA-C） Butterworth type low-pass filter with highly linear range and less passband attenuation is presented for wearable bio-telemetry monitoring applications ...A fifth order operational transconductance amplifier-C （OTA-C） Butterworth type low-pass filter with highly linear range and less passband attenuation is presented for wearable bio-telemetry monitoring applications in a UWB wireless body area network. The source degeneration structure applied in typical small transconduc- tance circuit is improved to provide a highly linear range for the OTA-C filter. Moreover, to reduce the passband attenuation of the filter, a cascode structure is employed as the output stage of the OTA. The OTA-based circuit is operated in weak inversion due to strict power limitation in the biomedical chip. The filter is fabricated in a SMIC 0.18-μm CMOS process. The measured results for the filter have shown a passband gain of -6.2 dB, while the -3-dB frequency is around 276 Hz. For the 0.8 Vpp sinusoidal input at 100 Hz, a total harmonic distortion （THD） of-56.8 dB is obtained. An electrocardiogram signal with noise interference is fed into this chip to validate the function of the designed filter.展开更多
