Abstract :
In this paper, the authors present pseudo-floating-gate (PFG) binary and analog inverters with feedback control. The PFG inverter can be used to implement digital, multiple-valued (MV) and analog circuits. The PFG inverter will suppress low frequency components due to a local feedback. PFG circuits can be utilized for low voltage (LV) binary-, multiple valued logic and analog circuits. Typical applications are detection of high frequency components in sensory signals, i.e. airbag sensors. A differential LV amplifier is presented. Simulated data is valid for a CMOS process with at threshold voltage equal to 0.4V. The circuits has been implemented in a 130nm CMOS process
