An N Order Central Symmetrical Layout Pattern for Nonlinear Gradients Cancellation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, systematic mismatch due to parameter gradients is modeled and analyzed. A new layout strategy with flexible cell placement is proposed. Theoretical analysis shows its property of canceling the mismatch between two devices due to up to n order gradient effects by using 2 unit cells for each device. Simulation results show that the proposed technique gives better matching characteristics than other existing layout techniques under nonlinear gradients.

Explicit Characterization of Bandgap References Table of Contents
Stable and precision voltage references are an integral part of many analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits. Bandgap references have been widely used for precision on-chip voltage sources in both bipolar and CMOS processes. Conspicuously absent in the literature are explicit relationships between the output voltage and temperature of bandgap references. Temperature characteristics of bipol...
متن کاملNew Layout Strategies with Improved Matching Performance
In this paper, the systematic mismatch error in integrated circuits due to gradient effects is modeled and analyzed. Three layout strategies with improved matching performance are reviewed and summarized. The hexagonal tessellation pattern can cancel quadratic gradient errors with only 3 units for each device and has high area-efficiency when extended. Both the N th-order circular symmetry patt...
متن کاملUsing the Adaptive Frequency Nonlinear Oscillator for Earning an Energy Efficient Motion Pattern in a Leg- Like Stretchable Pendulum by Exploiting the Resonant Mode
In this paper we investigate a biological framework to generate and adapt a motion pattern so that can be energy efficient. In fact, the motion pattern in legged animals and human emerges among interaction between a central pattern generator neural network called CPG and the musculoskeletal system. Here, we model this neuro - musculoskeletal system by means of a leg - like mechanical system cal...
متن کاملImproving Linearity of CMOS Variable-gain Amplifier Using Third-order Intermodulation Cancellation Mechanism and Intermodulation Distortion Sinking Techniques
This paper presents an improved linearity variable-gain amplifier (VGA) in 0.18-µm CMOS technology. The linearity improvement is resulted from employing a new combinational technique, which utilizes third-order-intermodulation (IM3) cancellation mechanism using second-order-intermodulation (IM2) injection, and intermodulation distortion (IMD) sinking techniques. The proposed VGA gain cell co...
متن کاملVibration control of an automotive engine using active mounts
In this research, vibration control of national engine (EF7) using active mounts is studied for two different mounting layouts. The first layout is based on the current engine mounting of national engine (system of three passive mounts), but the hydraulic mount is substituted by an active mount. The other mounting layout contains 4 mounts, 2 of which are active ones and the others are passive m...
