The portable real-time electrocardiogram (ECG) is a convenient and promising electronic device for cardiovascular diseases patients. However, unlike wet gel electrodes in traditional clinical applications, dry electrodes are competent for comfortable long-time wearing and can prevent skin ulceration. Its ultra-high source impedance and electrode offset (EOS) make traditional chopper amplifiers with low input impedance and limited EOS range difficult to apply to this area. To overcome these challenges, this paper proposes a novel chopper amplifier topology. This architecture includes a gain control loop, a ripple reduction loop, and a DC-servo loop (DSL). The proposed sampling input stage and digital-analog hybrid DSL are employed to boost input impedance and extend the EOS handing range. Designed with a 0.18 µm 1P6M 1.8 V CMOS salicide process, the proposed chopper capacitively coupled instrumentation amplifier achieves an ultra-high input impedance of 120 GΩ (&lt;0.05 Hz) or 2.1 GΩ (0.6~250 Hz), an EOS handing range of ±325 mV and a low noise of 1.9 μVrms at 0.6~250 Hz. It occupies an area of 0.36 mm2 and only consumes a quiescent current of 11 μA.
