Low-voltage current-mode integrator for channel selection filter

A low-voltage current-mode integrator is presented for a continuous-time baseband channel selection filter of wireless communication systems. Fully-balanced current-mirror structure with additional cascode transistors operated in linear region enables low-voltage and low-power dissipation properties as well as voltage-controllable cutoff frequencies over a broad frequency range. A channel selec...

Cascode Circuits for Switched Current Copiers

Various cascode circuits are investigated with regard to their suitability for switched current copier applications. Generalized circuit representations are introduced and different cascode circuits are compared and discussed. A method called “reference voltage and current tracking” for dynamic output range improvement is proposed. An improved regulated cascode circuit with extended dynamic out...

Cmos Current-mode Integrator Anddifferentiator for Low Voltage and Low Power Applications

A new approach for CMOS Current-Mode Integrator (CMI) and Differentiator (CMD) realization are presented in this work. The proposed circuits are employed the inverter-based second-generation current conveyor (CCII). The CCII circuit achieves minimum number of stack transistors between the rail supply and class AB operation ability. Therefore, the proposed circuits are considered as low voltage ...

A Low Voltage High Performance Self Cascode Current Mirror

A current mirror (CM) based on self cascode MOSFETs low voltage analog and mixed mode structures has been proposed. The proposed CM has high output impedance and can operate at 0.5 V. P-Spice simulations confirm the high performance of this CM with a bandwidth of 6.0 GHz at input current of 100 μA. Keywords—Current Mirrors, Composite Cascode Structure, Current Source/Sink.
