Abstract :
A continuous-time inductive (1/jLω) CMOS transconductance analog amplifier is presented. The proposed CMOS amplifier contains one capacitor and eleven transistors only. The circuit based on a modified traditional gyrator simulates an inductive transconductance. Simulation results under 2.5V supply voltage and using the 0.8μm CMOS process parameters from AMS have shown good performances. For example, from a DC bias current of 10 μA to 50 μA, the controlled inductance (Lx) that defines the amplifier transconductance varies from Lx=406 μH to Lx=47 μH. At 50 μA the total power consumption is 634 μW only. Based on this new topology, additional simulation results of a simple current-controlled band-pass filter have been added in this paper.
