This paper presents an integrated Hall switch sensor based on SMIC 0.18 µm CMOS technology. The system includes a front-end Hall element and a back-end signal processing circuit. By optimizing the structure of the Hall element and using the orthogonal coupling and spinning current technology, the offset voltage can be suppressed effectively. The simulation results showed that the Hall switch can eliminate offset voltage greater than 1 mV at 3.3 V supply voltage. Two modes of the Hall switch circuit, the awake mode and the sleep mode, were realized by using clock logic signals without compromising the performance of the Hall switch, thereby reducing power consumption. The test results showed that the operate point and the release point of the switch were within the range of 3–7 mT at 3.3 V supply voltage. Meanwhile, the current consumption is 7.89 µA.

In this paper, a variable gain amplifier (VGA) designed in 130 nm CMOS technology is presented. The proposed amplifier is based on the bulk-driven (BD) design approach, which brings a possibility to operate with low supply voltage. Since the supply voltage of only 0.6 V is used for the amplifier to operate, there is no risk of latch-up event that usually represents the main drawback of the BD circuit systems. BD transistors are employed in the input differential stage, which makes it possible to operate in rail-to-rail input voltage range. Achieved simulation results indicate that gain of the proposed VGA can be varied in a wide scale, which together with the low supply voltage feature make the proposed amplifier useful for low-voltage and low-power applications. An additional circuit responsible for maintaining the linear-in-decibel gain dependency of the VGA is also addressed. The proposed circuit block avails arbitrary shaping of the curve characterizing the gain versus the controlling voltage dependency.

In this paper, a SRAM array targeting IBM 130nm CMOS technology is proposed for ultra dynamic voltage scaling (UDVS) application with better immunity against process variation. A type of modified Schmitt Trigger inverter is adopted in the SRAM design, which guarantee stable operations in both superthreshold and subthreshold supply voltage regions. Testing results demonstrate that the proposed SRAM array functions well in the supply voltage range of 150 mV to 1200 mV. The optimum-energy supply voltage point is about 400 mV for proposed UDVS SRAM array. And the energy at 400 mV decreases by 62.5% compared to that at 1200 mV.

Systems-on-Chip’s (SoC) design complexity demands a high-performance linear regulator architecture to maintain a stable operation for the efficient power management of today’s devices. Over the decades, the low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator design has gained attention due to its design scalability with better performance in various application domains. Industry professionals as well as academia have put forward their innovations such as event-driven explicit time-coding, exponential-ratio array, switched RC bandgap reference circuit, etc., to make a trade-off between several performance parameters such as die area, ripple rejection, supply voltage range, and current efficiency. However, current LDO architectures in micro and nanometer complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technology face some challenges, such as short channel effects, gate leakage, fabrication difficulty, and sensitivity to process variations at nanoscale. This review presents the LDO architectures, optimization techniques, and performance comparisons in different LDO design domains such as digital, analog, and hybrid. In this review, various state-of-the-art circuit topologies, deployed for the betterment of LDO performance and focusing on the specific parameter up-gradation to the overall improvement of the functionality, are framed, which will serve as a comparative study and reference for researchers.

The power dissipation was 380 NW at 1.8 V Supply. The proposed circuit would be suitable for use in sub-threshold –operated power-aware large-scale integration

In this paper, a novel low voltage low power CMOS second generation voltage conveyor (VCII) with an improved voltage range at both the X and Z terminals is presented. The proposed VCII is formed by a current buffer based on a class AB regulated common-gate stage and a modified rail-to-rail voltage buffer. Spice simulation results using LFoundry 0.15 μm low-Vth CMOS technology with a ±0.9 V supply voltage are provided to demonstrate the validity of the designed circuit. Thanks to the class AB behavior, from a bias current of 10 µA, the proposed VCII is capable of driving 0.5 mA on the X terminal, with a total power consumption of 120 µW. The allowed voltage swing on the Z terminal is at least equal to ±0.83 V, while on the X terminals it is ±0.72 V. Both DC and AC voltage and current gains are provided, and time domain simulations, where the voltage conveyor is used as a transimpedance amplifier (TIA), are also presented. A final table that summarizes the main features of the circuit, comparing them with the literature, is also given.

In this paper, a dimmable light-emitting diode (LED) driver, along with the low-frequency current ripple decreased and the bipolar junction transistor (BJT) power dissipation reduced, is developed. This driver is designed based on a single-stage flyback converter. On the one hand, the low-frequency output current ripple reduction is based on the physical behavior of the linear current regulator. On the other hand, when the voltage across the LED string is decreased/increased due to dimming or temperature, the output voltage of the flyback converter will be automatically regulated down/up, thereby making the power dissipation in the BJT linearly proportional to the LED current. By doing so, not only the power loss in the linear current regulator will be decreased as the LED current is decreased or the LED temperature rises, but also the output current ripple can be reduced. Furthermore, the corresponding power factor (PF) is almost not changed, and the total harmonic distortion (THD) is improved slightly. In addition, the LED dimming is based on voltage division. Eventually, a 30 W LED driver, with an input voltage range from 85 to 295 Vrms and with 24 LEDs in series used as a load, is developed, and accordingly, the feasibility of the proposed LED driver is validated by experimental results.

This paper proposes an OLED pixel compensation circuit that copes with threshold voltage variation, narrow data voltage range, and body effect on a backplane of silicon-based transistors. It consists of six PMOS transistors and two capacitors. The data voltage range is extended by the capacitor division with two capacitors, and the connection of both source and gate nodes to the supply voltage makes the driving transistor free from the body effect. In addition, the reference voltage is used to initialize the gate node voltage of the driving transistor as well as to adjust the data voltage region. By the SPICE simulation, it is verified that the current error over the threshold voltage variations of ±10 mV is reduced to be −1.200% to 0.964% at the maximum current range of around 8 nA, and the data voltage range is extended to 3.4 V, compared to the large current error range from −21.46% to 27.36% and the data voltage range of 0.41 V in the basic 2T1C circuit. In addition, the body-effect-free circuit outperforms the latest 4T1C circuit of the current error range from −3.279% to 3.388%.
