In this paper a high speed hybrid current mode sense amplifier is presented. Sense amplifier is the most important component of SRAM cell used to sense stored data. Sense amplifiers are used to read the contents of SRAM cells. Sense amplifiers perform amplification, delay reduction and power reduction. Earlier voltage mode sense amplifiers are used to sense the data from bitlines. But with incr...

Flip-flops are critical timing elements in digital circuits which have a large impact on circuit speed and power consumption in VLSI circuits. In this paper, a dualedge triggered flip-flop with high performance and clock gated sense amplifier flip-flop is designed. Moreover, the pulse generator can be shared among many flip-flops to reduce the power dissipation and chip area. By incorporating t...

In this paper, an lateral diffused metal–oxide– semiconductor-based very high-frequency class-E power amplifier has been investigated theoretically and experimentally. Simulations were verified by amplifier measurements and a record-high class-E output power was obtained at 144 MHz, whic is in excellent agreement with simulations. The key of the results is the use of efficient device models, si...

In this paper, reduced power consumption, low-noise CMOS amplifier using chopper technique is designed, chopper-equalized amplifier had been used as a front end of a voltage-to-frequency converter instrument which performs pretty well, and they were meeting just about every specification, but they had a problem with undesired and unpleasant little offset shifts and jumps. Trying to solve this p...

In this work, we analyze the effects of an inter-stage capacitor located between the power stage input and the driver stage output on the overall efficiency of a RF CMOS power amplifier and on gate-drain reliability problems. To verify the analyzed effects, we designed a RF CMOS power amplifier with a center frequency of 1.85GHz. Class-D amplifiers with a feedback resistor are used as driver st...

The rapid growth of the hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) has been driving the demand of high temperature automotive electronics target for the engine compartment, power train, and brakes where the ambient temperature normally exceeds 150°C. An operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) is an essential building block of various analog circuits such as data converters, instrumentation systems, l...

The Doherty power amplifier (DPA) is one of the most popular power amplifier architectures for obtaining high average efficiency for modern communication signals with high peak-to-average power ratios (PAPR). However, the DPA suffers from often having narrowband performance which limits its capabilities in wideband and/or multi-standard microwave and radio frequency applications. In this thesis...

Analysis and simulation are presented of the mismatched load condition for a balanced class-E power amplifier, which is based on 90° hybrids at its input and output. The performances of the 200-Watt balanced class-E amplifier, such as the output power and efficiency, were analyzed and compared to the conventional single-ended class-E power amplifier for the 1:3 VSWR mismatch condition. The simu...

The power amplifiers are typically the most power-consuming block in wireless communication systems. Spectrum is expensive, and newer technologies demand transmission of maximum amount of data with minimum spectrum usage. This requires sophisticated modulation techniques, leading to wide, dynamic signals that require linear amplification. Although linear amplification is achievable, it always c...
