Abstract :
The aim of this communication is to present some aspects regarding nonlinear distortion analysis in circuits implemented in CMOS technology. Basically, the investigations envisage the shape of the total harmonic distortion (THD) dependence on the amplitude and frequency of the input signals. It is apparent that the above function gives interesting insight of the nonlinear behavior of the studied circuits and it is worth considering for further investigations.
