Abstract :
Mixed-signal ICs benefit greatly from processing fully balanced signals. Real-world signals are single-ended and must be converted on-chip to fully balanced signals. This article discusses a simple, accurate, low power CMOS solution to generating fully balanced signals on-chip. The design does not require common-mode feedback and provides a pin for controlling the common-mode level
