A charge pump for phase locked loops (PLL) with a novel current mismatch compensation technique is proposed. The proposed circuit uses a simple yet effective current stealing-injecting (CSI) technique and feedback to reduce mismatch between the negative-channel-metal-oxide (NMOS) and positive-channel-metal-oxide (PMOS) transistors. The current stealing transistor steals the current from a replica branch and mirrors it to the output where it is added to the output branch by the injecting transistor. A feedback mechanism is used to set the drain voltages of both branches to be equal and mitigate channel length modulation and ensure high accuracy. The proposed circuit was designed on Silterra 130nm technology and simulated using Cadence Spectre. The simulation results show that the proposed circuit yields a maximum of 0.107% and minimum of 0.00465% current mismatch while operating at a low supply voltage of 800mV for a range of 100mV to 700mV. The proposed design uses only one rail-to-rail op amp for compensating the mismatch and an addition of 4 transistors and utilizing 75% of the supply voltage for high voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) tuning range.

An rail-to-rail operational amplifier is presented in this paper, which is designed by with two op amp, the first level of the structure is the complementary differential structure which will providing input for the operational amplifier, the second level is designed with the structure of folding cascode to get a high gain. The operational amplifier is designed with the TSMC 0.35u m3.3VCMOS mixed analog-digital technology library. The simulated results show that the operational amplifier has a DC gain of 110dB,a GBW of 9.5MHz,a static power dissipation of 0.95mW,a phase margin of 73°,a voltage slew rate of 8.2V/μS,an input and output range of 0-3.3V,when operating at 3.3V power supply and a 20pF output load.
