A CMOS nested-chopper instrumentation amplifier is presented with a typical offset of 100 nV. This performance is obtained by nesting an additional low-frequency chopper pair around a conventional chopper amplifier. The inner chopper pair removes the 1/f noise, while the outer chopper pair reduces the residual offset. The test chip is free from 1/f noise and has a thermal noise of 27 nV//spl radic/Hz consuming a total supply current of 200 /spl mu/A.
