Bharat Institute Of Engineering & Technology Analog IC Design Lab Manual 1. Fix the first comer of the box with the mouse. While keeping the mouse button pressed, move the mouse to the opposite corner of the box. Release the button, This creates a box in polysilicon layer as shown in Figure above. The box width should not be inferior to 2, which is the minimum width of the polysilicon box. 2.

Draw a n-diffusion box at the bottom of the drawing as in Figure below. N-diffusion boxes are represented in green.

A thin oxide called the gate oxide isolates the gate. Various steps of oxidation have lead to stacked oxides on the top of the gate. The physical properties of the source and of the drain are exactly the same. Theoretically, the source is the origin of channel impurities. In the case of this nMOS device, the channel impurities are the electrons. Therefore, the source is the diffusion area with the lowest voltage. The polysilicon gate floats over the channel, and splits the diffusion into 2 zones, the source and the drain. The gate controls the current flow from the drain to the source, both ways. A high voltage on the gate attracts electrons below the gate, creates an electron channel and enables current to flow. Static MOS Characteristics Click on the MOS characteristics icon. The screen shown in Figure below appears. It represents the Id/Vd static characteristics of the nMOS device. - 3] 3| oT : Figure Static Characteristic of MOS > Bharat Institute Of Engineering & Technology Analog IC Design Lab Manual The MOS size (width and length of the channel situated at the intersection of the polysilicon gate and the diffusion) has a strong influence on the value of the current. The MOS width is 3.25jm and the length is 0.25um. A high gate voltage (Vg =2.5V) corresponds to the highest Id/Vd curve. For Vg=0, no current flows. A maximum current around 1.5mA is obtained for Vg=2.5V, Vd=2.5V, with Vs=0.0. The MOS parameters correspond to SPICE Level 3 Simulation Click on Simulate a Start Simulation.

When the gate is at zero, no channel exists so the node s1 is disconnected from the drain. When the gate is on, the source copies the drain. It can be observed that the nMOS device drives well at zero but poorly at the high voltage. The highest value of sI is around 2.0V, that is VDD minus the threshold voltage.

MENTOR GRAPHICS Tool Theory of cascade current mirro: Current mirrors are frequently used in analog and mixed signal circuit design and because they appear so simple, their importance is sometimes overlooked. The design of an improved regulated cascode current mirror that offers very higher resolution and high speed. This can be accomplished by a feedback loop consisting of an amplifier and M2 (i.e. NMOS_1) as source follower, thereby increasing the output resistance (ideally infinite). The performance of the circuit was analyzed using simulations based on a 130nm technology. This circuit has a limitation that the minimum level of output swing is limited, because drain-source voltage of M1 never touches.

Bharat Institute Of Engineering & Technology Analog IC Design Lab Manual Experiment 5 Objective: Design and Simulation of Cascode current mirror TOOLS USED: 1. Operating System-Linux 2. MENTOR GRAPHICS Tool Theory: Current mirror circuits are widely used, especially within integrated circuit technology. The mirror circuit generally consists of two transistors, although other devices such as FETs can be used, and some configurations do use more than two devices in the overall circuit to obtain better performance. The current mirror circuit gains its name because it copies or mirrors the current flowing in one active device in another, keeping the output current constant regardless of loading. The current being mirrored can be a constant current, or it can be a varying signal dependent upon the requirement and hence the circuit. Conceptually, an ideal current mirror is simply an ideal inver ing current amplifier that reverses the current direction as well or it is a current-controlled current source (CCS). The current mirror is used to provide bias currents and active loads to circuits, A cascoded current mirror device is disclosed that is capable of producing an output current that is a direct function of an input current received by that device. The cascoded current mirror includes at least two portions connected together in a cascode manner. Provision is also made for feedback connection between those portions. This feedback connection can, for example, be a buffering connection. Voltage signals are generated by this device that can be used to drive and control additional output stages. Each such additional output stage is capable of producing an additional output current Bharat Institute Of Engineering & Technology Analog IC Design Lab Manual Figure Schematic view of cascode current mirror.

How does a cascode current mirror maintain equal Vds of the bottom transistors? Bharat Institute Of Engineering & Technology Analog IC Design Lab Manual Experiment Ni Objective: Design and Simulation of regulated cascade configuration. TOOLS USED: 1. Operating System-Linux 2, MENTOR GRAPHICS Tool. Theory: The cascode configuration has a couple of advantages over the traditional common- source amplifier. Consequently, the gain of the overall circuit is increased. Another benefit is achieved from a speed perspective. It was stated above that one of the main benefits of the cascode was to increase the output resistance of the common-source amplifier, thus increasing the gain. This modification was successful because the assumption of very large drain-source of the traditional common-source resistance is no longer valid when dealing with small geometry T™ devices.

Operating System-Red Hat-16.02 2. MENTOR GRAPHICS Tool Theory The Butterworth filter is a type of signal processing filter designed to have as flat frequency response as possible (no ripples) in the pass-band and zero roll off response in the stop-band. Butterworth filters are one of the most commonly used digital filters in motion analysis and in audio circuits, They are fast and simple to use. However, one main disadvantage of the Butterworth filter is that it achieves this pass band flatness at the expense of a wide transition band as the filter changes from the pass band to the stop band. It also has poor phase characteristics as well. 19 920 98 90° Comer JIst-order Maximally flat ‘@nd-order 03 F (Hz) Normalised Frequency Bharat Institute Of Engineering & Technology Analog IC Design Lab Manual ‘That the higher the Butterworth filter order, the higher the number of cascaded stages there are within the filter design, and the doser the filter becomes to the ideal "brick wall" response. 27KO 16k. 0.33 vo Fig High Pass Butterworth Filter Fig Frequency Response curve Conclusion: Simulation results are verified correctly Bharat Institute Of Engineering & Technology Analog IC Design Lab Manual Experiment Ni Objective: To Design the Op-Amp as an Integrator and Differentiator TOOLS USED: 1. Operating System-Red Hat-16.02 2. MENTOR GRAPHICS Tool Theory In an integrator circuit, the output voltage is integral of the input signal. At low frequencies the gain becomes infinite, so the capacitor is fully charged and behaves like an open circuit, The gain of an integrator at low frequency can be limited by connecting a resistor in shunt with capacitor. In the differentiator circuit, the output voltage is the differentiation of the input voltage. The input impedance of this circuit decreases with increase in frequency, thereby making the circuit sensitive to high frequency noise. At high frequencies, circuit may become unstable Re ct Bf Fig. Operation Amplifier as an Differentiator Conclusion: Simulation results are verified correctly.
