Preface
This book proposes recent scientific results concerning the research of novel electronic integrated circuits and system solutions for sensor interfacing, many of which developed by the authors, utilizing the deep experience in analog microelectronics of the research team from University of L’Aquila both in sensor field and in Low Voltage Low Power analog integrated circuit design with Voltage-Mode and Current-Mode approaches. In particular, this monograph describes and discusses a number of analog interfaces, suitable for resistive, capacitive and temperature sensors, some of which developed by the authors also in a standard CMOS integrated technology (AMS 0.35 m). The book is organized as follows. After a fast “excursus” on physical and chemical sensors (Chap. 1) and a state of art analysis of the main resistive, capacitive and temperature sensors and their related basic analog interfaces (Chap. 2), novel and improved solutions of Low Voltage Low Power analog circuits and systems, designed both in Voltage-Mode (Chap. 3) and in Current-Mode (Chap. 4) approaches, suitable for portable sensor interfacing applications, will be described and investigated. Then, the lock-in technique will be considered (Chap. 5) with the aim to improve the sensor system characteristics. In the Appendices, the Second Generation Current Conveyor theory and applications, together with some novel design implementations at transistor level, as well as the noise and offset compensation techniques for the design of high-accuracy instrumentation voltage amplifiers, will be also described. More in detail, concerning resistive sensors, the book describes the main design aspects and different circuit solutions of the
