It eliminates an input frequency and phase dependent systematic offset introduced by a similar previous technique [5] and introduces automatic saturation detection and feedback resistance modulation for fast amplifier restabilization, yielding 10× improvement in artifact recovery time. The technique was implemented in a 192 nW LNA + PGA + ADC chain.text::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
