    摘要: A new inverter-based fully-differential amplifier is provided including one or more common-mode feedback transistors coupled to each inverter, which transistors operate in the liner region. Accordingly, due to the fully-differential nature of the new inverter-based fully-differential amplifier, the amplifier provides an improved Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR), provides a reduced sensitivity to supply voltage and process or part variations, and does not require an auto-zeroing technique to be utilized, which ultimately saves power, all while utilizing the low-voltage and low-power advantages of an inverter-based design.

    摘要: A resistively folded single stage differential amplifier capable of accommodating a low input common mode without impacting the performance of a bias current source, while also providing a high input impedance to allow for the use of the linear termination resistors. The differential amplifier provides an amplified output signal with a common mode referenced to an upper bound of an input power supply. The differential amplifier includes an input sub-stage and a transistor sub-stage resistively folding the input sub-stage.

    摘要: A circuit and a method for nullifying temperature dependence of a circuit characteristic. The circuit includes a plurality of transistors configured such that they generate a gate voltage that includes a threshold voltage as a component. The gate voltage is applied to a transistor to generate a current that is proportional to a process transconductance parameter. The current is applied to a comparator having a differential pair of transistors, wherein each transistor has a process transconductance parameter. The circuit takes the ratios of the process transconductance parameter associated with the current to that of each transistor of the differential pair. By rationing the process transconductance parameters, temperature dependence is nullified or negated. The ratios can be used to set the hysteresis voltage of the comparator.

    摘要: A folded cascode operational amplifier using an improved gain enhancement technique is described. The folded cascode includes an input section, a cascode current mirror section, and a cascode current section. A first fully-differential operational amplifier is coupled to the cascode current mirror section to provide improved gain enhancement thereto and a second fully-differential operational amplifier is coupled to the cascode current source section to provide improved gain enhancement thereto. The differential inputs of the first fully-differential operational amplifier are coupled to feedback nodes of the cascode current mirror section and the differential outputs of the first fully-differential operational amplifier are coupled to control nodes of the cascode current mirror section. The differential inputs of the second fully-differential operational amplifier are coupled to feedback nodes of the cascode current source section and the differential outputs of the second fully-differential operational amplifier are coupled to control nodes of the cascode current mirror section. Coupling the feedback nodes of both current sources to a single fully-differential operational amplifier increases the common mode noise rejection of the corresponding section.
