A Review of Different Architectures of Operational Transconductance Amplifier 1

2012

The outside world is of analog nature and to interact with computerized devices, we need analog and mixed signals along with Analog to Digital (A/D) circuits. Among various analog circuits, Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA) plays a very dominant role. OTA is an amplifier whose differential input voltage produces an output current. Its main characteristics are Gain, Unity Gain Bandwidth, Phase margin, Output swing, Slew rate, CMRR, PSRR and Offset etc. It is widely used in Voltage Controlled Amplifiers, A/D converters and filter applications. In this paper we discussed different architectures of the OTA and the Trade-offs among its characteristics made evident. Designing a high gain, high speed and low power consuming OTA is real challenge for the analog designers. As increasing or decreasing in one parameter will result in variations in other parameters. This paper identifies the different issues related to OTA and solution to overcome different Trade-offs.

Analysis & Performance of Operational Transconductance Amplifier at 180nm Technology

IRJET, 2022

The performance analysis of a two-stage CMOS operational transconductance amplifier in conventional gate driven mode is presented in this paper. Theoretical computations as well as computeraided simulation analyses have been detailed. The designs were created using the TSMC 180nm CMOS process. 'Pyxis Schematic' was used for schematic simulations, while the simulator 'Eldo', version 11.2 of Mentor Graphics, was used for simulations. To begin, a DC analysis is used to determine all of the transistors' operating regions. All of the transistors are properly operating in the saturation zone, according to the results. Further AC research reveals that the Op Amp has a gain of 75 dB, a phase margin of 53.8, and a unity gain bandwidth of 30.5MHz. In addition, the input referred noise voltage is 0.0fV/Hz and the CMMR is 77.8dB. The slew rate is 0.37V/s, and the settling time is 472ns, according to transient analysis. Under 1.8V supply voltage, the output swings up to 1.25V, and the op-amp consumes 536.5W of power. The supply voltage is scaled to 1.5V and then to 1.2V to achieve a lowpower op-amp. With supply voltage scaling, large power savings of 18% and 35% can be achieved without compromising phase margin and slew rate, and only minor compromises in a few parameters like gain, UGB, and CMRR.
