A Switched-Capacitor Low-Pass Filter with Dynamic Switching Bias OP Amplifiers

Switched Capacitor Filter

A Switched Capacitor circuit is an electronic circuit element used for discrete time signal processing. It works by moving charges into and out of capacitors when switches are opened and closed. Usually, nonoverlapping signals are used to control the switches, so that not all switches are closed simultaneously. Filters implemented with these elements are termed switched capacitor filters. Unlik...

Low-Voltage Fully Differential CMOS Switched-Capacitor Amplifiers

A Very Low Voltage 9th Order Linear Phase Baseband Switched Capacitor Filter (RESEARCH NOTE)

A very low voltage 9th order linear phase baseband switched capacitor (SC) filter has been designed to be used as part of a cellular GSM (Global System Mobile) receiver. A Gaussian-to-6dB filter of the order of seven is chosen and a second order function is added to reduce the group delay variations around. The filter uses a fully differential topology to increase the dynamic range and reduce t...

A Zero - Crossing Switched - Capacitor Filter Design

Design of switched capacitor circuits in scaled CMOS technologies is becoming difficult because of low device intrinsic gain and reduced power supply voltage. To solve these problems, comparator-based switched-capacitor (CBSC) circuits and zero-crossing based circuits (ZCBC) were suggested as a possible solution to the op-amp based circuits. In this thesis, we explore zero-crossing based circui...

A Switched-Capacitor Band-Pass Biquad Filter Using a Simple Quasi-unity Gain Amplifier

This paper presents a switched-capacitor (SC) band-pass biquad using a simple quasi-unity gain amplifier. In sub-nanometer CMOS technologies the intrinsic gain of the transistors is low; this increases the difficulty of designing high gain amplifiers. The proposed SC filter is based on the Sallen-Key biquad and it requires only a simple low gain amplifier. A differential filter circuit, includi...
