Abstract

This paper presents fully integrated low power consumption limiting amplifier. The proposed limiting amplifier is employed folded cascode structure with source degeneration output stage. This proposed structure demands few transconductance than conventional structure. It can be dramatically decrease current consumption. The total power consumption is only $96.5\;{\mu}W$ under a 1.8 V supply voltage in 9.5 dB limited gain condition. It was designed in using $0.18\;{\mu}m$ CMOS technology.
