In this paper, a new active device, current differencing cascaded transconductance amplifier (CDCTA), has been presented. The proposed CDCTA simplifies the design of the current-mode filter circuit considerably, especially the design of high-order filter. Moreover, a current-mode nth-order filter based on the CDCTA is proposed in the paper. The proposed circuit, which adopts only an active comp...

Polymorphic gates are unconventional logic components which can switch their logic functions according to changing environment. The first part of this study presents an evolutionary approach to the design of polymorphic modules which exhibit different logic functions in different environments. The most complicated circuit that we evolved contains more than 100 gates. The second part of this stu...

Despite excellent high frequency and high speed performance, current-feedback operational ampli ̄ers (CFOAs) generally exhibit poor common-mode rejection (CMRR) properties, which limit their utility [Analogue IC design: The current mode approach, IEE Circuits and Systems Series, Peter peregrinus, 1990]. A novel current feedback operational ampli ̄er (CFOA) with improved performance is presented. ...

This technique provides; wide dynamic range, wide-bandwidth response and low power consumption. The major advantages of this approach are; its has single ended inputs; since its input is dual translinear loop ...

As semiconductor technology goes into the deep submicron region, the static power caused by leakage current is no longer negligible. Gated-GND circuit technique switches SRAM cells into standby mode to reduce the static power. In this paper, we studied the detailed current scenario in a Gated-GND circuit structure. Based upon the analysis, we employed a more accurate way to estimate the efficie...

A new voltage-mode multifunction biquadratic filter using one differential difference current conveyor (DDCC), two grounded capacitors and three resistors is presented. The proposed circuit offers the following attractive advantages: realizing highpass, bandpass, lowpass and notch filter functions, simultaneously, from the same circuit configuration; employing grounded capacitors, which is idea...

in order to solve the problem of fuel pollution, the diesel fuel for power generation of marine was abandoned and shore power supply have been proposed at the historic moment. the shore power supply which needs transferring 380v/50hz to 450v/60hz is used on shipping who need this kind of power, so effectively curbs the emissions of pollution gas into the air, and achieves the purpose of improvi...

In this article, a novel concept is introduced to improve the radio frequency (RF) linearity of partially-depleted (PD) silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MOSFET circuits. The transition due to the non-zero body resistance (RBody) in output conductance of PD SOI devices leads to linearity degradation. A relation for RBody is defined to eliminate the transition and a method to obtain transition-free c...

This open-loop gain enhancement circuit in 1.2pm CMOS does not require cascode or long-channel transistors, thus maximizing output swing and input common-mode range [1,21. Since gain enhancement is achieved not by increasing output resistance, but by matching main and replica amplifiers, high effective open-loop gain is maintained even with resistive loads. This circuit can be used with any tra...
