Description

Configurable low-frequency high-pass filter
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a sensing technology and integrated circuit technical field especially relate to a can dispose low frequency high pass filter.
Background
In recent years, the rapid development of sensing technology creates favorable conditions for human attention to self physiological signals. The accurate collection of physiological signals such as electrocardio, electroencephalogram, myoelectricity, blood pressure and the like ensures that the research and diagnosis of medical science have effective information support and promotes the development of modern medical science. In addition, the acquisition and analysis of the electroencephalogram signals can realize a series of brain control systems and products, and the brain control system and the brain control products are widely applied to the fields of military affairs, astronavigation, industry, entertainment and the like.
The physiological signals such as electrocardio, electroencephalogram, myoelectricity and the like belong to weak bioelectricity signals essentially, the amplitude of the signals is generally between dozens of uV and several mV, and the range of frequencies from several thousands of Hz to several thousands of Hz is covered. Generally, the bioelectric signal is detected by connecting two electrode probes to two different contact points of a human body, and a voltage signal difference between the two electrodes is obtained for processing and analysis. However, due to the electrochemical effect of the electrodes, the electrodes themselves introduce a dc offset voltage of up to several hundred mV, which is sufficient to cover the effective signal collected. Meanwhile, as the acquisition object is in a micro-motion process, such as contraction movement of respiration or movement of the body, the signal baseline of the acquisition circuit often has larger drift due to motion artifacts generated by the human body, and the signal acquisition channel amplifying circuit is possibly saturated and distorted due to serious electrode offset voltage and motion artifacts. Therefore, in the process of amplifying the bioelectric signals, the offset voltage introduced by the electrodes needs to be eliminated through high-pass filtering, the influence caused by motion artifacts needs to be suppressed as much as possible, and meanwhile, the signal-to-noise ratio of signal sensing acquisition is improved by a certain amplification capacity. In the case of high-pass filtering processing, which is often required to achieve a very low cut-off frequency, it is required to retain the low-frequency components of the bioelectric signal.
The frequency components of interest tend to be different from bioelectric signals. The filtering frequency can be configured to meet different application requirements. In addition, the amplitude of the bioelectrical signal has a great correlation with the type of the electrode and the acquisition environment, so that the amplification factor is required to be flexibly adjusted.

after the first dc feedback circuit 60 and the first feedback capacitor array circuit 80 are connected in parallel, one parallel end is connected to a connection node a between the first output end of the coupling capacitor circuit 10 and the first input end of the first chopping changeover switch circuit 20, and the other parallel end is connected to a connection node C between the first output end of the second chopping changeover switch circuit 40 and the first input end of the filter circuit 50;
after the second dc feedback circuit 70 and the second feedback capacitor array circuit 90 are connected in parallel, one parallel end of the second dc feedback circuit is connected to the connection node B between the second output end of the coupling capacitor circuit 10 and the second input end of the first chopping switch circuit 20, and the other parallel end of the second dc feedback circuit is connected to the connection node D between the second output end of the second chopping switch circuit 40 and the second input end of the filter circuit 50;
the coupling capacitor circuit 10 is used for isolating direct-current voltage input by the probe; the first chopping switching circuit 20 and the second chopping switching circuit 40 modulate the direct-current offset voltage and the component noise of the operational amplifier circuit 30 to be out of the preset frequency band by periodically switching two-phase states; the first feedback capacitor array circuit 80 and the second feedback capacitor array circuit 90 provide feedback paths for the ac signals; the first dc feedback circuit 60 and the second dc feedback circuit provide feedback paths for the dc signals; the filter circuit 50 is used for filtering out dc offset voltage and component noise modulated outside a preset frequency band.
The working principle of the configurable low-frequency high-pass filter is as follows: two positive and negative electrode probes for acquiring bioelectricity signals are respectively connected to positive and negative input ends of the circuit, positive and negative weak bioelectricity signals input from the electrodes are respectively subjected to feedback amplification through the first direct current feedback circuit 60, the first feedback capacitor array circuit 80 and the operational amplifier circuit 30, then high-pass filtering with low cut-off frequency is respectively realized through the second direct current feedback circuit 70 and the second feedback capacitor array circuit 90, meanwhile, the noise of circuit components and offset voltage caused by component mismatch are modulated out of a preset frequency band by the first chopping switch circuit 20 and the second chopping switch circuit 40, finally, the direct current offset voltage and the component noise which are modulated out of the preset frequency band are filtered out by the filter circuit 50, and finally, accurate weak bioelectricity signals are acquired.
The advantages of the technical solution of the present invention are illustrated by comparing with several existing weak bioelectric signal acquisition schemes:
the first scheme is as follows: and a low-frequency high-pass filter circuit is realized by adopting discrete components in an analog filtering mode. In some integrated bioelectric amplifiers, an external large capacitor or large resistor is generally used at the input end to meet the requirement of high-pass filtering, so as to filter the electrode offset voltage and suppress motion artifacts.
The second scheme is as follows: a MOS feedback resistor connected with a diode is adopted in a feedback loop of the operational amplifier to form large equivalent impedance, so that a low-frequency high-pass filter circuit is realized.
In the third scheme: the analog front end selects low amplification factor to prevent the electrode maladjustment from causing signal amplification and then saturation distortion, and then the ADC with ultrahigh resolution ensures the conversion precision of a large dynamic range, thereby ensuring the data precision of subsequent digital processing.
A fourth scheme: and eliminating electrode offset voltage and inhibiting motion artifact by a digital filtering mode.
The four weak bioelectric signal acquisition schemes have the following defects:
in the first solution, since the frequency components of interest of the bioelectric signal are often as low as several thousandths of Hz, it is necessary to filter the dc offset and motion artifacts of the electrodes while preserving the effective signal, which requires the cut-off frequency of the high-pass filter to be lower than several thousandths of Hz. A high-pass filter with such a low cut-off frequency requires a capacitor with a large capacitance value or a resistor with a large resistance value. This is not conducive to full integration of the solution, usually requiring external capacitors or resistors. Under the condition of multi-channel acquisition, a high-pass filter cannot be multiplexed, and one channel needs an independent high-pass filter, so that a large number of capacitors or resistors need to be externally hung, and the cost and the volume of the scheme are inconvenient to control.
In the second scheme described above, diode-connected MOS feedback resistors are used in the feedback loop, although chip integration and low cut-off frequency are easily achieved. But the biggest disadvantage is that the voltage fluctuation at two ends of the MOS feedback resistor is large, and the resistance value of the MOS feedback resistor is changed greatly, so that large signal distortion is generated.
In the third scheme, although the amplifier saturation distortion caused by the influence of the offset voltage can be relieved to a certain extent by setting the multiple of the amplifier to be smaller, the signal acquisition precision can also be influenced by the noise of the amplifier due to the smaller gain. While low amplification is generally insufficient to achieve a high signal-to-noise ratio of the signal. The need for an ultra-high resolution ADC again necessarily results in increased design difficulty and increased solution cost.
In the fourth scheme, offset voltage cancellation is performed by introducing a digital algorithm circuit, and a large circuit scale generally makes system design more complicated, so that silicon chip cost is high and additional circuit noise is introduced by integrating a digital circuit.
Therefore, the technical scheme of the utility model has following advantage: the utility model discloses the scheme does not need outside discrete device can realize the high pass and ends, can not only realize the integrated and low cut-off frequency of chip, can also effectively eliminate the direct current imbalance of electrode and do not arouse target signal's distortion to can suppress motion artifact to a certain extent, the utility model discloses a circuit design is simple and easy, change integrated, the volume is littleer, the cost is lower, the consumption is littleer.
Fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of another embodiment of the configurable low-frequency high-pass filter of the present invention;
as shown in fig. 2, the configurable low-frequency high-pass filter of this embodiment further includes, on the basis of the embodiment of fig. 1: a first fast setup switch circuit 100 and a second fast setup switch circuit 110;
one end of the first fast set-up switching circuit 100 is connected to the connection node a, and the other end is connected to the connection node C; one end of the second fast set-up switch circuit 110 is connected to the connection node B, and the other end is connected to the connection node D; the first fast set-up switching circuit 100 and the second fast set-up switching circuit 110 are used to increase the response speed of the configurable low frequency high pass filter during probe turn-on and turn-off.
The utility model discloses this kind of low frequency amplification filtering scheme of configurable low frequency high pass filter is in practical application, because the ultralow cut-off frequency is very low, when the input disconnection reconnects again, the response is very slow (feedback loop high impedance node leads to circuit response time slow), and it is very long time that the output is stable promptly. Therefore, the rapid establishment switching circuit is introduced to enable the amplifying circuit to be short-circuited for a short time at the initial stage of starting work, so that the voltages of the node A and the node B or the node C and the node D can be rapidly established near a working point, then the rapid establishment switching circuit is disconnected, the amplifying circuit enters a normal working state, and the response speed of the circuit in the electrode connection and disconnection processes is improved.
