본 논문에서는 직렬 복합 트랜지스터를 이용한 저전압 선형 가변 트랜스컨덕터를 설계하였다. 직렬 복합트랜지스터는 포화 영역에서 동작하는 트랜지스터와 선형 영역에서 동작하는 트랜지스터가 직렬 연결된 구조로 낮은 공급 전압에서도 넓은 입력 전압 범위를 갖는다. 설계된 트랜스컨덕터는 $0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS n-well 공정 파라미터를 이용하여 HSPICE로 시뮬레이션한 결과 차단주파수는 309MHz 이고, 입력 신호 주파수가 10MHz일 때 1.5VP-P의 차동 입력에 대해 1.1%이하의 THD 특성을 갖는다.

In this paper, the design of a CMOS exponential V-I converter (EVIC,) based on Taylor's concept, is presented. The composite NMOS transistor is used for realizing the exponential characteristics. In a 0.25 $\mu$m CMOS process, the simulations show more than 20 dB output current range and 15 dB linear range with the linearity error less than $\pm$ 0.5 dB. The power dissipation is less than 0.3 mW with $\pm$ 1.5 V supply voltage. The proposed EVIC can be used for the design of an extremely low­voltage and low-power variable gain amplifier (VGA) and automatic gain control (AGC).

In this paper, a low voltage CMOS analog four-quadrant multiplier using two V-I converters is presented. The proposed V-I converter is composed of the series composite transistor and the low voltage composite transistor. The designed analog four-quadrant multiplier has simulated by HSPICE using 0.25$\mu\textrm{m}$ n-well CMOS process parameters with a 2V supply voltage. Simulation results show that the power dissipation is 1.55㎿, the cutoff frequency is 489MHz, and the THD can be 0.26％ at maximum differential input of 1V$\sub$p-p/.

In this paper, the CMOS four-quadrant analog multipliers for low-voltage low-power applications are presented. The circuit approach is based on the characteristic of the LV (Low-Voltage) composite transistor which is one of the useful analog building blocks. SPICE simulations are carried out to examine the performances of the designed multipliers. Simulation results are obtained by $0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS parameters with 2V power supply. The LV composite transistor can easily be extended to perform a four-quadrant multiplication. The multiplier has a linear input range up to ${\pm}0.5V$ with a linearity error of less than 1%. The measured -3dB bandwidth is 290MHz and the power dissipation is $37{\mu}W$. The proposed multiplier is expected to be suitable for analog signal processing applications such as portable communication equipment, radio receivers, and hand-held movie cameras.

This paper proposes a novel scheme of a gray scale fingerprint image for a high-accuracy capacitive sensor chip. The conventional grayscale image scheme uses a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) of a large-scale layout or charge-pump circuit with high power consumption and complexity by a global clock signal. A modified capacitive detection circuit for the charge sharing scheme is proposed, which uses a down literal circuit (DLC) with a floating-gate metal-oxide semiconductor transistor (FGMOS) based on a neuron model. The detection circuit is designed and simulated in a 3.3 V, 0.35 ${\mu}m$ standard CMOS process. Because the proposed circuit does not need a comparator and peripheral circuits, the pixel layout size can be reduced and the image resolution can be improved.

In the designs of integrated circuits, the buffer circuits used for driving a large capacitive load from minimum-structured logic circuit outputs have important effects upon system throughputs. Therefore it is important to optimize the buffer circuits. In this paper, the principle of designing CMOS buffer circuits which have the minimum delay and drive the given capacitive load is discussed. That is, the effects of load capacitance upon rise time, fall time, and delay of the CMOS inverter and the effects of parasitic capacitances are finely analysed to calculate the requested minimum-delay CMOS buffer condition. This is different from the method by C.A. Mead et. al.[2.3.4.]which deals with passive-load-nMOS buffers. Large channel width MOS transistor stages are necessary to drive a large capacitive load. The effects of polysilicon gate resistances of such large stages upon delay are also analysed.And, the area of buffer circuits designed by the proposed method is smaller than that of buffer circuits designed by C.A. Mead's method.

본 논문은 단락회로 전류를 없애기 위한 CMOS 버퍼회로에 대한 것이다. 최종 구동소자는 풀-업 PMOS와 풀-다운 NMOS로 구성하고 이를 구동하기 위해 두가지 경로를 입력신호로 선택되도록 하였다. 이러한 기법으로 최종 구동회로가 짧은 시간동안 tri-state가 되어 단락회로 전류를 차단하였다. 모의 실험결과 전원전압 3.3V에서 전력-지연 곱을 기존의 Tapered 버퍼[1]와 비교하여 약 42% 줄일 수 있었다

In this paper, algeration of electical characteristics is analyzed when the operating temperature of MOSFET, BJT and CMOS/BiCMOS inverter is lowered from 300K to 77K. As the operating temperature is lowered, electric characteristics of MOSFET are enhanced generally but, those of bipolar transistor are degraded because current gain is reduced by BGN(Band Gap Narrowing) effect. For the inverter considered in this work, switching characteristics of PSA-BiCMOS inverter are enhanced by the electrical characteristics enhancement of MOSFET when the operating temperature is reduced to 200K, while under 200K, those of PSA-BiCMOS inverter are degraded because the degradation of BJT impacts on the inverter circuit.

A new CMOS current-mode integrator for low-voltage analog integrated circuit design is presented. The proposed current-mode integrator is based on cross-coupled gain-boosting topology. When it is compared with that of the typical current-mirror type current-mode integrator, the proposed current-mode integrator achieves high current gain and unity gain frequency with the same transistor size. As a application circuit of the proposed integrator, we designed the 1.8V 200MHz band current-mode lowpass filter. These are verified by Hspice simulation using $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS technology.

The floating-gate MOSFETs were fabricated by employing 1.5 m n-well CMOS process and their optical-electrical properties were characterized for the application to CMOS image sensor system. Based on the simulation of energy band diagram and operating mechanism of parasitic BJT were proposed as solutions for the increase of photo-current value. In order to realize them, MOSFETs having multi-gate and channel structures were fabricated and 60% increase in photo-current was achieved through enlargement of depletion layer and parallel connection of parasitic BJTs by channel division.
