Sense Amplifiers fundamentals and design

[sri4ever]

Hello,
I'm new to Analog Circuit design.
Can anyone suggest on how should I go about learning Sense Amplifiers?
what are the fundamental concepts I should be aware of?



Any suggestions is appreciated.

Thanks

Sense amplifier is a broad term. Can you be more specific ?
It can be part of the internal circuit of a memory. A power supply remote voltage sensing. Current sensing.
May be you want to amplify a signal coming from a sensor ?

The best for learning about "sense" amplifiers are the books on operational amplifiers. Opamps are versatile and can be adjusted to process output signals from most sensor types.

I am interested in understanding the working of sense amplifiers for memory circuits. These Sense Amplifiers have cross coupled PMOS transistors. Also how the design varies according to the memory type.

Thanks
