In an example, an electrical circuit device for amplifying a physiological signal includes a modulation unit configured to receive an input signal, to modulate the input signal to produce a modulated signal. The device also includes an amplification and transconductance unit configured to amplify an amplitude of the modulated signal and increase a transconductance of the modulated signal to produce a transconductance enhanced modulated and amplified signal, where the amplification and transconductance unit comprises at least a first complementary pair of transistors and a second complementary pair of transistors configured to receive the modulated signal and to amplify and increase the transconductance of the modulated signal. The device also includes a demodulation unit configured to receive the transconductance enhanced modulated and amplified signal and to demodulate the signal.
