초록

연속시간 전류모드 기저대역 채널선택 필터 설계를 위하여 전류이득과 단위이득 주파수를 개선시킨 저전압 선형 캐스코드 전류모드 적분기를 제안하였다. 제안된 전류모드 적분기는 CMOS 상보형 회로로 구성된 완전 차동 형태의 입 출력단으로 구성하였으며, 여기에 캐스코드 트랜지스터를 추가시킴으로써 바이어스 단을 구성하여 선형영역에서 동작시켜 저전압 구조에 적합하도록 설계하였다. 이 때 바이어스 전압을 선택적으로 제어하여 주파수 대역이 가변될 수 있도록 설계하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 설계한 선형 캐스코드 전류모드 적분기가 저전압 동작, 전류 이득 및 단위이득 주파수 등 모두 만족할 만한 특성을 가지고 있음을 확인하였다.

This paper proposes a low-voltage current-mode integrator for a continuous-time current-mode baseband channel selection filter. The low-voltage current-mode linear cascode integrator is introduced to offer advantages of high current gain and improved unity-gain frequency. The proposed current-mode integrator has fully differential input and output structure consisting of CMOS complementary circuit. Additional cascode transistors which are operated in linear region are inserted for bias to achieve the low-voltage feature. Frequency range is also controllable by selecting proper bias voltage. From simulation results, it can be noticed that the implemented integrator achieves design specification such as low-voltage operation, current gain, and unity gain frequency.
