Abstract :
A high performance operational amplifier 300 mil/SUP 2/ in area has been designed and fabricated in a standard n-channel silicon-gate enhancement/depletion MOS process. Specifications achieved include open-loop gain, 1000; power consumption, 10 mW; common-mode range within 1.5 V of either supply rail; unity-gain bandwidth, 3.0 MHz with 80/spl deg/ phase margin; RMS input noise (2.5 Hz-46 kHz), 25 /spl mu/V; C-message weighted noise -5 dBrnC; and 0.1-percent settling time, 2.5 /spl mu/s.
