Abstract

This paper presents the design review of feed-forward automatic gain control (AGC) amplifier to be used in analog front end of biomedical applications such as hearing aid. To make system low-power, the design of each block is optimized and all elements are realized using MOS. The whole design is simulated in LTspice IV using 0.18 µm CMOS technology and the results are presented.

Keywords: Automatic gain control (AGC), biomedical signal acquisition, analog circuit simulation, biomedical circuits and systems
