Abstract

This Paper describes the design of high speed and low power comparator based on the feed forward bias control. Major building blocks of this comparator are composed of input offset canceling circuit and feed forward bias control circuit. The usual offset canceling circuit cancels the offset voltages by storing them in capacitors using MOS switches, The comparator of this paper employs the bias control circuit which generates bias signal from the input signal. The bias signal is applied to the capacitors and keeps the transfer of chares in the capacitors in the minimal amount, therefore making the comparator operate in stable condition and reduce decision time. The comparator in this form has very samll area and power dissipation. Maximum sampling rate is 200 Ms/sec. The comparator is designed in 0.65${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ technology and the offset is less than 0.5㎷.
