  • Operational amplifier compensation using doublet-decompression for switched-capacitor circuits

    Creator:
    Jen, Shin D.
    Abstract:
    A frequency compensation technique for increasing the settling speed of two-stage operational amplifiers used in switched-capacitor applications has been developed. By properly decompressing the pole-zero doublet to form a three-pole one zero system, the settling speed is increased up to 50 percent as compared to the optimized two-pole system.

  • A high-swing CMOS operational amplifier topology

    Creator:
    Yang, John Jian
    Abstract:
    A circuit topology for high-swing, high-linearity CMOS operational amplifiers has been developed. The technique uses parallel-connected p- and n-channel input pairs to realize an input common-mode voltage range nearly equal to the total power supply voltage. High linearity is achieved by summing the DC bias and AC small-signal currents so...

  • Design of high-speed adaptive parallel multi-level decision feedback equalizer

    Creator:
    Xiang, Yihai
    Abstract:
    Multi-level decision feedback equalization (MDFE) is an effective technique to remove inter-symbol interference (ISI) from disk readback signals, which uses the simple architecture of decision feedback equalization. Parallelism which doubles the symbol rate can be realized by setting the first tap of the feedback filter to zero. A mixed-signal implementation...

  • Design of high-speed low-power analog CMOS decision feedback equalizers

    Creator:
    Su, Wenjun
    Abstract:
    Decision feedback equalizer (DFE) is an effective method to remove inter-symbol interference (ISI) from a disk-drive read channel. Analog IC implementations of DFE potentially offers higher speed, smaller die area, and lower power consumption when compared to their digital counterparts. Most of the available DFE equalizers were realized by using...

  • Current-feedthrough cancellation technique for current-mode T/H circuits

    Creator:
    Young, David Y. W.
    Abstract:
    In this paper, an analysis of the clock-feedthrough effects in switched-current (SI)' circuits will be presented. The clock-feedthrough effects caused by the non-ideal characteristic of MOS switches when they are turned off limit the accuracy of the analog track-and-hold (T/H) circuits. A model to analyze and characterize this effect is...

  • Design and computer aided optimization of a fully integrated CMOS RF distributed amplifier

    Creator:
    Ballweber, Brian M.
    Abstract:
    Advancements in the sophistication and complexity of modern electronic systems are creating a need for highly integrated systems with ever higher operational frequencies. The economical demands of these systems dictate that they be implemented using low cost fabrication technologies, such as digital CMOS. One of the major challenges facing circuit...

  • MOS switched-current biquadratic filters

    Creator:
    Lee, Bor
    Abstract:
    A MOS biquadratic (biquad) filter employing the switched-current technique is reported. The circuit uses current-mode processing which can offer wide bandwidth, low voltage operation, and can be implemented with standard CMOS technology. Examples of lowpass, highpass, and bandpass filters are given which illustrate the synthesis procedures and the versatility of...

  • A fast-settling folded-cascode CMOS operational amplifier

    Creator:
    Abu-Dayeh, Mahmoud A.
    Abstract:
    A fast-settling CMOS operational amplifier using the folded-cascode topology has been designed. The design is based on a theory developed by Yang et al for the optimum settling time of two-pole systems for switched-capacitor applications. The theory states that the two poles are separated by a given factor in order...

  • A time-multiplexed switched-capacitor circuit for neural network applications

    Creator:
    Hansen, James Edward, 1962-
    Abstract:
    Analog computation in the form of neural networks is currently receiving much attention. Existing algorithms cannot be easily implemented in hardware because of the large number of neurons needed and the number of connections necessary between them. These problems have motivated development of alternatives to a conventional implementation. Hence, a...
