USAGE AND APPLICATION
  • Speed and accuracy determined by settling
    behavior of opamps
  • Our amp will find uses in
  • SC Filters
  • Signal-processing functions
  • Algorithmic A/D Converters
  • Sigma-Delta Converters
  • Sum-difference approach to A/D conversion
  • Sample-and-hold Amplifiers
  • Holds input at output when given hold signal
  • Pipeline A/D Converters

RESISTANCE BOOSTING
  • Folded Cascoded Differential to Single-ended
    Amplifier.
  • Utilized to increase the resistance seen by the
    output.

CASCODING
  • Differential Amp Cascoding
  • Utilizes gain boosting technique to increase Rout
    seen by diff. amp
  • Uses NMOS and PMOS load to maximize load

7
COMMON MODE FEEDBACK
  • Provides Better Linearity
  • Greater Stability
  • Output Vcm set by circuit

CMFB (contd)
  • Advantages
  • Good linearity
  • Large sensitivity to Vcm
  • Small parasitic capacitance
  • Disadvantages
  • Large power consumption
  • Large chip area

9
FREQUENCY CONSIDERATIONS
  • Dominant pole from output node
  • Load capacitance and high resistance
  • Phase Margin of 60
  • Push other poles and zeroes past unity gain
    frequency
  • Unity Gain of 300 MHz
  • wu gm/CL

CONCLUSION
  • Can achieve extremely high gain through
  • Folded load network
  • Cascoding
  • Gain-boost technique
  • Large unity-gain frequency can be attained via
  • Sizing
