In this paper a new method for the design of a linear phase distributed amplifier in 180nm CMOS technology is presented. The method is based on analogy between transversal filters and distributed amplifiers topologies. In the proposed method the linearity of the phase at frequency range of 0-50 GHz is obtained by using proper weighting factors for each gain stage in cascaded amplifier topology....

In this paper a bandpass filter structure is proposed for realizing the artificial transmission lines of cascaded singlestage distributed amplifiers (CSSDA) and the basic analysis and design of the bandpass structured CSSDA (BP-CSSDA) is demonstrated. Some of the lower frequency region in the gain-frequency band of CSSDA is lost because of the bias components. Using the bandpass structure for r...

A wideband 2-1-1 cascaded ΣΔ modulator with a single-bit quantizer in the two first stages and a 4-bit quantizer in the final stage is developed. To reduce sensitivity of digital-to-analog converter (DAC) nonlinearities in the feedback of the last stage, dynamic element matching (DEM) is introduced. This paper presents two modelling approaches: The first is MATLAB description and the second is ...

High gain amplifiers with fast settling times are needed for high-speed data converter applications. A cascaded amplifier architecture is discussed that can make use of several architecturally identical amplifies to achieve the desired gain. Only one of the amplifiers has a gainbandwidth product requirement that is modestly higher than the rest to keep the overall structure stable in the presen...

This chapter is devoted to the realization of some novel active circuits by using transconductance amplifiers. The transconductance amplifier can be realized by the widely used device Op-Amp and specially designed operational transconductance amplifier (OTA). By using single Op-Amp in one circuit itself we can get two filter responses. The first circuit realizes first order low pass – high pass...
