Analogue Micropower FET Techniques Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
A detailed introduction to published analogue circuit design techniques using Si and Si/SiGe FET devices for very low power applications is presented in this review. The topics discussed include subthreshold operation in FET devices, micro-currentmirrors and cascode techniques, voltage level-shifting and class-AB operation, the bulk-drive approach, the floating-gate method, micropower transconductancecapacitance and log-domain filters and strained-channel FET technologies.

A Novel Monolithic Micropower Amplifier Using a SiGe n-MODFET Device
A micropower-relevant model is extracted from the DC characteristics of an n-type buried channel Si/SiGe HMODFET (Hetero-junction Modulation Doped FET). This model is then used to design a novel monolithic SiGe single-stage class-A power amplifier for micropower operation (sub 500μW). The amplifier is fabricated and measured data of the power-gain versus operating power are presented here for t...
متن کاملMicropower Analogue Building Blocks for Template Matching in Implantable Devices
The design of analogue low power VLSI building block is very important for implantable devices, like cochlear implants and implantable cardioverter deebril-lators(ICD). In this paper we describe the micropower analogue building blocks for implementing the template matcher used for intracardiac electrogram (ICEG) clas-siication and data compression in an ICD. These blocks were fabricated using O...
