Abstract
A low-voltage low-power CMOS operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) with near rail-to-rail output swing is presented in this brief. The proposed circuit is based on the current-mirror OTA topology. In addition, several circuit techniques are adopted to enhance the voltage gain. Simulated from a 0.8-V supply voltage, the proposed OTA achieves a 62-dB dc gain and a gain–bandwidth product of 160 MHz while driving a 2-pF load. The OTA is designed in a 0.18- CMOS process. The power consumption is 0.25 mW including the common-mode feedback circuit.
