A novel systematic approach for synthesizing DDCC-based voltage-mode biquadratic universal filters is proposed. The DDCCs are described by infinity-variables’ models of nullor-mirror elements which can be used in the nodal admittance matrix expansion process. Applying the proposed method, the obtained 12 equivalent filters offer the following features: multi-input and two outputs, realization o...

The steady reduction in the dimension of transistors, according to Moore's law has been the main force behind the regular leaps in the level of performance of the silicon ICs. Due to the effects like the short channel effects, tunnelling effect, additional heat dissipation, interconnect problems etc problems arise. So it is not possible to reduce the size further. Hence now it is necessary to a...

In this work the different approaches to avoid crosstalk noise in VLSI integrated circuits are presented. The geometry of the cross-section of the lines is one of the more important parameters which must be considered when crosstalk problems are analyzed. Thus depending on this parameter we can select the best rule to avoid signal integrity problems in VLSI circuits. Several structures will be ...

A low-voltage and low-power voltage mode adder/subtractor using MOSFETs in weakinversion is presented in this paper. Since the MOSFETs in the proposed circuit are biased in weak inversion, consequently its power dissipation is very low. The proposed circuit has been simulated with the HSPICE using a N-well 0.35μm 2p4m process and the results show that, under the supply voltage of 1V, the power ...

Abstract A fully differential high-dynamic range operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) to be used in switchedcapacitor filters and/or over-sampled A/D converters is presented. The architecture chosen for this design is folded cascode with fully differential gain boosting. It is demonstrated through the design analysis and HSPICE simulation that such a structure realizes the best trade-of...

We present a novel multifunction inverse biquad configuration based on current feedback operational amplifiers (CFOAs) and grounded passive elements. The proposed scheme can be used to realize inverse lowpass, inverse bandpass and inverse highpass filter functions. The relevant coefficients of the inverse filters are orthogonal adjustable by independent passive elements. All the passive element...

By altering the threshold detector circuit of the conventional current mode logic circuitsand applying the multiple value logic (MVL) approach the number of transistors in basic logicoperators are significantly reduced and hence a reduction of chip area and power dissipation as wellas an increase in spee...

In this paper, an energy efficient design of asymmetric high performance low swing CMOS driver receiver pair for driving global on-chip interconnects is proposed. The design is implemented on 90nm CMOS technology using HSPICE. The proposed CMOS driver receiver pair reduces the power by 35.45% as compared to the static driver with conventional level converter (CLC). The design is also compared w...

Novel low-voltage constant-impedance analog switch circuits are proposed. The switch element is a single MOSFET, and constantimpedance operation is obtained using simple circuits to adjust the gate and bulk voltages relative to the switched signal. Low-voltage (1-volt) operation is made feasible by employing a feedback loop. The gate oxide will not be subject to voltages exceeding the supply vo...
