DTMOS-Based 0.4V Ultra Low-Voltage Low-Power VDTA Design and Its Application to EEG Data Processing
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, an ultra low-voltage, ultra lowpower voltage differencing transconductance amplifier (VDTA) is proposed. DTMOS (Dynamic Threshold Voltage MOS) transistors are employed in the design to effectively use the ultra low supply voltage. The proposed VDTA is composed of two operational transconductance amplifiers operating in the subthreshold region. Using TSMC 0.18μm process technology parameters with symmetric ±0.2V supply voltage, the total power consumption of the VDTA block is found as just 5.96 nW when the transconductances have 3.3 kHz, 3 dB bandwidth. The proposed VDTA circuit is then used in a fourth-order double-tuned band-pass filter for processing real EEG data measurements. The filter achieves close to 64 dB dynamic range at 2% THD with a total power consumption of 12.7nW.

This paper proposes the use of DTMOS transistors in a memristor-based ternary CAM (MTCAM) instead of MOSFET transistors. It also evaluates the effect of forward body biasing methods in DTMOS transistors on the performance of a MTCAM cell in write mode. These biasing methods are gate-to-body tying (called DT1), drain-to-body tying (called DT2), and gate-to-body tying with a voltage supply of 0.1...
