Chopper amplifier |
摘要 |
Various apparatuses and methods are described where a signal is amplified using a chopper amplifier arrangement, and ripples caused by said chopper amplifier arrangement are reduced. In some cases, this reduction of ripples is performed by controlling a voltage offset of an amplifier of said chopper amplifier arrangement. In other embodiments, a detection of ripples or a chopping of the chopper amplifier arrangement is at least temporarily disabled. |

1. An apparatus, comprising:
a chopper amplifier arrangement comprising a modulator, an amplifier and a demodulator, a ripple detector to detect ripples caused by said chopper amplifier arrangement and to adjust a voltage offset of said amplifier based on the detected ripples, and a system having an output, said output of said system being coupled with an input of said modulator, wherein an output of said demodulator is coupled with a control terminal of said system. |
