The design and comparison of elliptic filters with an OTA-C structure

Abstract: In this paper, a CMOS operational transconductance amplifier and capacitor(0TA-C) integrator which is used for high-frequency operation has been designed and simulated by SPICE 2G. program. We have r e a l i d the continuous-time OTA-C elliptic low-pass filters by cascade method and aSignal Flow Graph(SFG) method using only capacitors and OTAs. And then, the frequency characteristics of the obtained OTA-C filters are compared.

“…The error amplifier of the LDO regulator, in the negative feedback condition, constantly compares the error signal with the reference voltage and hence maintaining the constant output voltage by varying the gate to source voltage of the pass transistor accordingly. Since the output of error amplifier is used to drive the gate of the pass transistor which is naturally a capacitive load, the best option for the error amplifier would be an operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) [6,7] with high output impedance (Fig. 2).…”

“…DESIGN OF THE OPERATIONAL TRANSCONDUCTANCE AMPLIFIER (OTA) Fig. 3 shows the classical two-stage OTA in CMOS technology [7], where it is operated in +V dd and -V ss power supplies and with an external bias current I bias and having a single ended output. The first stage is the normal n-channel differential input pair (m 1 and m 2 ) with p-channel current mirror as its active load (m 3 and m 4 ).…”

“…Hence the unity gain bandwidth is varied by varying the load capacitance to obtain the suitable phase margin (PM) according to the application and hence assuring the stability of the system. In the proposed design (m 4,5 ) and (m 13,12 ), (m 3,6 ) and (m 11,14 ), (m 15,16 ) and (m 7,8 ) form the cascoded pairs with current mirroring. The main design criterion of the proposed OTA is same as the classical OTA design which depends on the Equations (3), (4), and (6).…”
