ABSTRACT |
As CMOS technology continues to evolve, the supply
voltages are decreasing while at the same time the transistor threshold
voltages are remaining relatively constant. Making matters worse, the
inherent gain available from the nano-CMOS transistors is dropping.
Traditional techniques for achieving high gain by vertically stacking
(i.e. cascoding) transistors becomes less useful in sub-100nm
processes. Horizontal cascading (multi-stage) must be used in order to
realize op-amps in low supply voltage processes. This seminar discusses
new design techniques for the realization of multi-stage op-amps.
Both single- and fully-differential op-amps are presented where low
power, small VDD, and high speed are important. The proposed, and
experimentally verified, op-amps exhibit significant improvements in
speed over the traditional op-amp designs while at the same time having
smaller layout area.. |
