Design and simulation of a wideband CMOS transconductance amplifier

A CMOS wideband transconductance amplifier has been designed in 1.2 /spl mu/m technology. The output current driving capabilities as well as the frequency response have been simulated using Monte Carlo analysis in order to investigate the effect of dispersion in process parameters. The control over...

Description
Summary:A CMOS wideband transconductance amplifier has been designed in 1.2 /spl mu/m technology. The output current driving capabilities as well as the frequency response have been simulated using Monte Carlo analysis in order to investigate the effect of dispersion in process parameters. The control over the amplifier bandwidth is obtained by adequate design of the main biasing current. Finally, the transfer characteristic curve nonlinearity is also studied.
