Abstract

This disclosure provides isolation for a medical amplifier by providing a low impedance path for noise across an isolation barrier. The low impedance path can include a capacitive coupling between a patient ground, which is isolated from control circuitry, and a functional ground of an isolation system that is isolated from earth ground. The low impedance path can draw noise current from an input of an amplifier of patient circuitry.
