A preamplifier interfaces low level current-mode signals, such as from a photodetector in a computerized tomography system, to a corresponding voltage-mode signals, with a dynamic range on the order of 120 dB. The preamplifier can be implemented in CMOS technology to allow for complete integration of the computerized tomography interface function, including analog-to-digital conversion, of several channels in a single integrated circuit. The CMOS circuit accepts a current signal at its input and, after integration of the signal, produces a voltage output wherein the low frequency noise that is normally encountered with MOS transistors is cancelled through the use of correlated-double sampling. The circuit limits high frequency noise through use of low-pass filtering.
