Cmos Amplifier

A low voltage low power two-stage CMOS amplifier with high open-loop gain, high gain bandwidth product (GBW) and enhanced slew rate is presented in this work. The proposed circuit makes use of folded cascode gm-boosting cells in conjunction with a low voltage gain enhanced cascode mirror using quasi-floating gate (QFGMOS) transistors. QFGMOS transistors are also used in input pair and adaptive biasing, which facilitate large dynamic output current in the presented circuit. Consequently, the slew rate is enhanced without much increase in static power dissipation. The unity gain frequency (UGF) and dc gain of the circuit are 29.4[Formula: see text]MHz and 132[Formula: see text]dB, respectively. The amplifier is operated at 0.6[Formula: see text]V dual supply with 89[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]W power consumption and has a nearly symmetrical average slew rate of 51.5[Formula: see text]V/[Formula: see text]s. All simulations including Monte Carlo and corner analysis are carried out using 180-nm CMOS technology for validating the design with help of spice tools.

In this paper, we present a novel operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) topology based on a dual-path body-driven input stage that exploits a body-driven current mirror-active load and targets ultra-low-power (ULP) and ultra-low-voltage (ULV) applications, such as IoT or biomedical devices. The proposed OTA exhibits only one high-impedance node, and can therefore be compensated at the output stage, thus not requiring Miller compensation. The input stage ensures rail-to-rail input common-mode range, whereas the gate-driven output stage ensures both a high open-loop gain and an enhanced slew rate. The proposed amplifier was designed in an STMicroelectronics 130 nm CMOS process with a nominal supply voltage of only 0.3 V, and it achieved very good values for both the small-signal and large-signal Figures of Merit. Extensive PVT (process, supply voltage, and temperature) and mismatch simulations are reported to prove the robustness of the proposed amplifier.
