A Low-Voltage CMOS Filter for Hearing Aids using Dynamic Gate Biasing
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we discuss the design of a low-voltage (1.5V), continuous-time, biquadratic CMOS filter based on Dynamic Gate Biasing (DGB). We begin by discussing the filter’s structure and its tuning mechanism. The filter uses transconductanceC cells and implements low-pass, bandpass and highpass transfer functions. The transconductances are tuned using the gate voltages of MOSFETs operating in the triode region. We review the principle of DGB, and discuss the design of the charge pump based on the filter’s performance and tunability requirements. Circuit details of the filter elements and the charge pump are presented along with SPICE simulation results of the overall filter.
