ABSTRACT
This study introduces an approach for converting the current from a sensor into controllable voltage. To this end, a switched-capacitor structure was integrated to provide efficient current-to-voltage conversion. The generated voltage was further regulated by an operational amplifier current source, enhancing stability and precision. An n-type metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor structure under an H-bridge was integrated into the system to achieve fine-tuned control over current stimulation. This component contributed to voltage regulation and enabled bi-directional control of current flow, offering versatility in adjusting current amplitudes using working and counter electrodes. This dynamic control mechanism was pivotal for effectively controlling the intensity of current stimulation. We applied Verilog-A modeling to simulate the optical characteristics of Si nanowires. The proposed system efficiently converted sensor-derived current into voltage using a switched-capacitor structure. Simultaneously, the precision was enhanced via operational amplifier regulation and n-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor-based H-bridge control. The simulation showed a current stimulus amplitude ranging from 2 to 13 µA for a variable photocurrent of Si nanowires (Rex 10 kΩ, pulse 100 Hz, 1 ms). The ability to finely control current stimulation intensity holds promise for diverse applications requiring accurate and adjustable current manipulation. This study contributes to the growing field of sensor technology by offering a unique perspective on the integration of nanostructures and electronic components for an enhanced control and functionality.
