A CMOS Inverter-Based Self-biased Fully Differential Amplifier

چکیده
A CMOS self-biased fully differential amplifier is presented. Due to the self-biasing structure of the amplifier and its associated negative feedback, the amplifier is compensated to achieve low sensitivity to process, supply voltage and temperature (PVT) variations. The output common-mode voltage of the amplifier is adjusted through the same biasing voltages provided by the common-mode feedback (CMFB) circuit. The amplifier core is based on a simple structure that uses two CMOS inverters to amplify the input differential signal. Despite its simple structure, the proposed amplifier is attractive to a wide range of applications, specially those requiring low power and small silicon area. As two examples, a sample-and-hold circuit and a second order multi-bit sigma-delta modulator either employing the proposed amplifier are presented. Besides these application examples, a set of amplifier performance parameters is given.

Abstract—This work presents a fully differential CMOS amplifier consisting of two self-biased gain boosted inverter stages, that provides an alternative to the power hungry operational amplifier. The selfbiasing avoids the use of external biasing circuitry, thus reduces the die area, design efforts, and power consumption. In the present work, regulated cascode technique has been employed for ga...

متن کاملDesign of a Current Mirror Based Differential Amplifier for Low-voltage and Low Power Applications
As per the Moore’s law, there is an extreme increase in number of on chip devices, this increase in chip density results in power dissipation and thus the power utilization is unsatisfactory. So to avoid this problem the concept of Low Power system arises. As a part of microelectronics, it has been proposed to make the choice of minute circuit with attraction added by use of MOS cells. Since we...
