Abstract :
It is shown that phase errors in triode MOS transconductors due to gate-drain capacitances can largely be compensated using a crosscoupled quad of transistors with balanced input voltages. The compensation is insensitive to temperature and IC-processing variations and remains good even when the transconductance of the triode MOS transistors is varied.
