Abstract
A fully differential fifth-order SC filter that can operate from power supplies as low as 1.5 V featuring a -80 dB THD up to 4 Vpp output voltage is presented. A measured p-weighted noise of 120 μVrms leads to a dynamic range of 81.5 dB. This circuit is used as reconstruction filter for a low voltage 14-b DAC. The very low voltage operation has been possible by integrating a regulated voltage-multiplier on the same chip. The filter active area is 0.54 mm 2 in a 0.8 μm CMOS technology. Typical power consumption is 0.8 mW at 1.5 V supply
