For example, the feedback circuit in the MIC 1000 provides high DC loop gain and low AC loop gain. The MIC 1000 provides DC bias and AC coupling in a single integrated circuit die without the need for external components. In an embodiment, the circuit that provides the DC bias is independent of the feedback circuit. In addition, the MIC 1000 has the advantage of providing a smaller device area than the MIC 900. As discussed above, in the integrator stage of the VflC 900, the resistor 921 is often a large resistance (e.g., 1 〇〇 Ω to 500 Ω), which requires a large device area. In the MIC 1000, this resistor is provided by a switched capacitor network 1020, which can be implemented using a smaller device area than a large resistor. In addition, since this is a sampling system, the feedback capacitor at the gain stage will provide anti-mineral filtering and the large integrator capacitance will provide smoothing. The switched capacitor network is controlled by the clock signal on the wafer and Φ2. The squelch function can also be implemented by changing the clock frequency. As also shown in FIG. 10, the MIC 1000 includes a M〇s mezzanine capacitor 1030 instead of the feedback capacitor 93 in the MIC 9〇〇 of FIG. 9. The feedback valley 931 is usually large, for example, 1〇〇pF-300. pF. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the MOS interlayer capacitor used in the MIC 1000 provides the desired capacitance, but requires a smaller device area. Figure 11 is a simplified schematic diagram of an integrated circuit for a programmable microphone interface in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. As shown, the MIC 1100 is an integrated circuit for providing a programmable microphone interface. The MIC 1100 includes an input terminal 1102 for receiving an input signal Vin and an output terminal 1104q MIC 1100 for providing an output audio signal Vout. The bias circuit is also coupled to the input terminal 36 1353111 96U003 26630twf.doc/n 1102. As shown, the bias circuit includes a microphone reference circuit 1108 and a resistor 1125. In the embodiment, 11〇8 is a programmable circuit and a reference circuit. Depending on the embodiment, the microphone reference circuit 11A8 can provide a reference voltage or a reference current. The MIC 1100 includes a first amplifier circuit lu'/, and the first amplifier circuit 1113 includes a first input terminal 11〇6, a second input terminal 1107, and an output terminal coupled to the output terminal 11〇4. The MIC 11 further includes a first feedback circuit 1161, and a feedback circuit 1161 includes a resistor 1122 and a capacitor 11% connected in parallel. The first feedback circuit is coupled to the output end of the amplifier 1113 and the first input end. The MIC 1100 also includes a second feedback circuit 1162 that includes an integrator circuit 11u and a resistor 1124. The second feedback circuit 1162 provides a feedback signal at node 1163. In an embodiment, resistor 1122 and resistor 1125 are programmable resistors. As shown, the integrator circuit 1111 includes an amplifier 1115, a switched capacitor circuit 1120', and a MOS interlayer capacitor 1130. The structure and function of the integrator circuit mi is generally similar to the structure and function of the integrator in Fig. 8 and the integral benefit 815 in Fig. 8. Switched capacitor circuit 112() and MOS interlayer valley 1130 provide the desired resistance and capacitance and consume relatively small device area. The feedback circuit in the MIC 1100 provides high DC loop gain and low AC loop boost. More specifically, the characteristics of the MIC 1100 are represented by a large DC return gain and a low AC loop gain, thereby causing the DC output voltage at the output terminal to be substantially equal to the second reference voltage, and the AC output voltage is coupled to the first feedback circuit. The impedance and the Ac input current or voltage through the wheeled terminals are linearly proportional. According to an embodiment of the invention, no external components are required 37 1353111 96U003 26630twf.doc/n
