General-Purpose 3V CMOS Operational Amplifier with a New Constant-Transconductance Input Stage
نویسنده
چکیده
Design trade-offs for a low-voltage two-stage amplifier in the HP CMOS14 process are presented and some of the issues of low-voltage analog design are discussed. The design of a new constant-transconductance input stage that has a rail-to-rail common-mode input range is described, along with the rail-to-rail class-AB output stage. The performance specifications and area of this amplifier are compared with a similar design in a previous process, CMOS34.

متن کامل1-V quasi constant-gm input/output rail-to-rail CMOS op-amp
A CMOS operational amplifier with input/output rail-to-rail range is presented. The circuit operates with a 1-V single supply. It uses dynamically biased input level shifters, controlled by a novel tuning scheme, to extend the input common-mode voltage range from one rail to the other. The tuning circuit takes the total biasing current of the amplifier input stage and, hence, its small-signal r...
