Abstract

This paper presents the design of an integrated circuit (IC) for (i) electrochemical deposition of sensor layers on the on-chip pad openings to form sensing electrodes, and (ii) amperometric readout of electrochemical sensors. The IC consists of two main circuit blocks: a Beta-multiplier based current reference for galvanostatic electrodeposition, and a switch-capacitor based amperometric readout circuit. The circuits are designed and simulated in a 180-nm CMOS process. The reference circuit generates a stable current of 99 nA with a temperature coefficient of 141 ppm/°C at best and 170 ppm/°C on average (across corners) over a supply voltage range of 1.2-2.4 V, and a line regulation of 0.7 %/V. The readout circuit measures current within pm 2 mu mathrmA with 99.9% linearity and a minimum integrated input-referred noise of 0.88 pA.
