Abstract :
A transresistance instrumentation amplifier (dual-input transresistance amplifier) was designed, and a prototype was fabricated and tested in a gamma-ray dosimeter. The circuit, explained in this letter, is a differential amplifier which is suitable for amplification of signals from current-source transducers. In the dosimeter application, the amplifier proved superior to a regular (single) transresistance amplifier, giving better temperature stability and better common-mode rejection.
