Item type:Publication, Access status: with files , Variable gain amplifier for MPS(Infinite Science Publishing, 2026-04-23) ;Malhotra, Ankit; ; ; The magnetic response of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) varies significantly during nucle-ation and growth, requiring adaptive signal conditioning to avoid saturation and maintain sensitivity. This work presents the design and experimental characterization of a low-noise variable gain amplifier (VGA) based on the AD603 for this application. The VGA offers a pin-selectable gain range from −10 dB to +30 dB, enabling high gain at early synthesis stages and controlled attenuation at later stages. Performance was evaluated in terms of transient response, gain, phase behavior, and noise characteristics over a frequency range of 1 kHz to 1 MHz. Measurements demonstrate stable gain, limited phase variation, and improved noise performance through parallel amplifier configurations, indicating suitability for low-noise, high-dynamic-range SPIONs measurement systems such as MPS/MPI devices.Publicationtype: Journal Article17 10
