Electroencephalography (EEG) is a sensitive and weak biosignal that varies from person to person. It is easily affected by noise and artifacts. Hence, maintaining the signal integrity to design an EEG acquisition system is crucial. This article proposes an analog design for acquiring EEG signals. The proposed design consists of eight blocks: (1) a radio-frequency interference filter and electro-static discharge protection, (2) a preamplifier and second-order high-pass filter with feedback topology and an unblocking mechanism, (3) a driven right leg circuit, (4) two-stage main and variable amplifiers, (5) an eight-order anti-aliasing filter, (6) a six-order 50-Hz notch filter (optional), (7) an opto-isolator circuit, and (8) an isolated power supply. The maximum gain of the design is approximately 94 dB, and its bandwidth ranges from approximately 0.18 to 120 Hz. The depth of the 50-Hz notch filter is −35 dB. Using this filter is optional because it causes EEG integrity problems in frequencies ranging from 40 to 60 Hz.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
