    A bulk-driven super MOS transistor (BD-SMT) for low voltage operation is presented. The proposed transistor achieves a high effective transconductance (G<inf>m(eff)</inf>), high effective drain impedance (R<inf>D(eff)</inf>) and low effective source impedance (R<inf>S(eff)</inf>). BD-SMT is designed based on regulated self-cascode and negative feedback techniques. The transistor been designed using a 0.18 μm CMOS technology and operated from a 0.4 V supply with a static power consumption of 12 μW. The simulation results showed higher G<inf>m(eff)</inf>, larger R<inf>D(eff)</inf> and smaller R<inf>S(eff)</inf> as compared to those of simple bulk-driven MOS transistor.

    A current-mode common-mode feedback circuit (CMFB) with rail-to-rail operation
    (2011-06-13)
    Suadet, Apirak
    ;
    This paper presents a current-mode commonmode feedback (CMFB) circuit with rail-to-rail operation. The CMFB is a stand-alone circuit, which can be connected to any low voltage transconductor without changing or upsetting the existing circuit. The proposed CMFB employs current mirrors, operating as common-mode detector and current amplifier to enhance the loop gain of the CMFB. The circuit employs positive feedback to enhance the output impedance and gain. The circuit has been designed using a 0.18 μm CMOS technology under 1 V supply and analyzed using HSPICE with BSIM3V3 device models. A pseudodifferential amplifier using two common sources and the proposed CMFB shows rail to rail output swing (± 0.7 V) with low common-mode gain (-36 dB) and power dissipation of 390 μW.

    This paper presents a low voltage adjustable CMOS Schmitt trigger using dynamic threshold MOS (DTMOS). Cross-coupled inverter with body control is employed to speed up the switching process, and control the intensity of the feedback. The proposed Schmitt trigger has been designed using 0.18 m 0.4 V CMOS technology and analyzed using PSPICE with BSIM3V3 device models. The simulation results show rail-to-rail operation and independently adjustable switching voltages for both low-to-high (V<inf>T(LH)</inf>) and high-to-low (V <inf>T(HL)</inf>) as high as 15 % of the supply voltage. The power dissipation is 0.13 W. © 2011 IEEE.

    Feedforward bulk-driven class AB fully-differential second-generation current conveyor (FDCCII)

    ;
    In this paper, a feedforward bulk-driven class AB fully-differential second-generation current conveyer (FDCCII) is presented. Bulk-driven differential pair is employed for the input stage allowing the FDCCII to operate with rail-to-rail operation. Feedfoward technique is also incorporated into input stage to increase the DC gain and minimize the common mode gain. The circuit performance is verified using HSPICE in 0.18 μm CMOS technology. The simulation results show rail-to-rail input and output swings. The DC voltage transfer characteristic between ports Y and X and DC current transfer characteristic between ports X and Z shows good linearity. The bandwidths show 25.7 MHz (V<inf>X</inf>/V<inf>Y</inf>), 30 MHz (I<inf>Z</inf>/I<inf>X</inf>), respectively. The power dissipation is 267.5 μW. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.

    Mitwong, Hanphon
    ;
    This paper presents a 0.5 V quasi-floating gate self-cascode DTMOS current-mode precision full-wave rectifiers (PFWR). The circuit is designed based on improved Wilson current mirrors. All MOS transistors are biased on the edge of conduction, enabling the circuit to operate at low voltage with low power consumption. Negative feedback mechanism of the Wilson current mirror and cross coupling techniques have been employed to reduce the input impedance. Spectre is used to perform the simulation and the results show the frequency of operation as high as 100 MHz using a standard 0.13 μm CMOS technology. The mismatch between the input and rectifier's output is 0.24% for an input current of ±100 μA. The DC transfer characteristic shows good linearity, very sharp corner at zero crossing point and good symmetry during positive and negative input cycle, while power dissipation is 570 nW © 2012 IEEE.
