Abstract
The current-mode instrumentation amplifier (CMIA) based on op-amp powe r-supply current sensing offers distinct advantages over conventional architecture designs. The CMIA is studied in detail and the CMRR expre ssion is derived in terms of op-amp and transistor parameters. A good CMRR is shown to depend upon several factors, including the power-supp ly rejection ratio of the op-amps used in the CMIA. The results obtain ed are shown to compare well with SPICE simulation and provide valuabl e design insight for development of the next generation of CMIAs.
