Abstract :
Two useful low voltage multipliers are presented in this paper. They employ only two transistors between the rails and perform four-quadrant multiplication. These circuits are based on the Vgs2 technique, and use MOS transistors in saturation in order to achieve squaring of the differential inputs. Theoretical results are verified with HSPICE simulations using a 3.3 V, 0.35 μm CMOS process.
