In this paper, we propose a low noise CMOS frontend for a Point-of-Care (PoC) biosensing platform based on tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) as sensors. The integration of a low noise and low power integrated circuit (IC) with the TMR sensors reduces power consumption compared to a realization with discrete electronics, and thereby paves the way towards a portable diagnostic system. The FDDA features a gain of around 60 dB with a suitable offset calibration scheme to deal with the large DC offsets caused by TMR and/or magnetic field variations. The ability to deal with changing DC fields is crucial for a portable setup that is intended to be used in unshielded environments outside the lab. The offset cancellation is achieved by two on-chip current steering DACs that can accommodate TMR resistances between 535Ω and 4.7 kΩ.
