Yayın An accurate CMOS interface small capacitance variation sensing circuit for capacitive sensor applications(Springer Birkhauser, 2017-12) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, Ramazan; Naderi Saatlo, AliIn this paper, an accurate front-end CMOS interface circuit for sensing very small capacitance changes in capacitive sensors is presented. The proposed structure scales capacitance variation to the sensible impedance changing. The scaling factor of the circuit can be easily tuned by adjusting bias points of the transistors. In order to cancel or decrease the parasitic components, the RC feedback and input transistor cascading techniques are employed in the design. To simulate the circuit, HSPICE simulator is utilized to verify the validity of the theoretical formulations in 0.18 mu m technology. According to schematic and post-layout simulation results, input impedance changes linearly versus capacitance variations up to 0.7 GHz, while the sensor capacitance changing is varied between 0 and 200 fF. According to the simulation results, total dc power consumption is obtained as low as 1 mW with 0.9 V power supply.Yayın CMOS high-performance UWB active inductor circuit(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc, 2016) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, Ramazan; Saatlo, Ali NaderiIn order to maximize efficiency of the designed gyrator-based active inductor, advanced circuit techniques are used. Loss and noise are most important features of the AIs, where they should be low enough to have high-performance device. The gyrator-C topology is used to design a new low-loss and low-noise active inductor. The gyrator-C topology is potentially high-Q and all transistors are utilized in common-source configuration to have high impedance in input-output nodes. All transistors are free of body effect. The p-type differential pair input transistors and the feed forward path are employed to decrease noise of the proposed circuit. Additionally, inductance value and quality factor are adjusted by variation bias current which gives to the device tunable capability. HSPICE simulation results are presented to verify the performance of the circuit, where the 180 nm CMOS process and 1.8 V power supply are used. The noise voltage and power dissipation are less than 2.8 nV/ ? Hz and 1.3 mW, respectively.Yayın Design of a new low loss fully CMOS tunable floating active inductor(Springer New York LLC, 2016-12) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, Ramazan; Saatlo, Ali NaderiIn this paper, a new tunable floating active inductor based on a modified tunable grounded active inductor is proposed. The multi regulated cascade stage is used in the proposed active structure to decrease the parasitic series resistance of active inductor, thus the Q factor enhancement is obtained. Furthermore, the arrangement of this stage leads to the smaller input transistor which determines active inductor’s self-resonance frequency and to be free of body effect which is crucial in sub-micron technology. Symmetrical design strategy has enabled both ports of the proposed floating active inductor to demonstrate the same properties. The Q factor and active inductor value are tuned with bias current and flexible capacitance (varactor), respectively. The self-resonance frequency of floating active inductor (~6.2 GHz) is almost the same as grounded prototype. In addition, the proposed active inductor also shows higher quality factor and inductance value compared to the conventional floating active inductor circuits. To show the performance of suggested circuit, simulations are done by using a 0.18 µm CMOS process, which demonstrates an adjustable quality factor of 10–567 with an inductance value range of 6–284 nH. Total DC power consumption and occupied area are 2 mW and 934.4 µm2, respectively.Yayın Designing a new high Q fully CMOS tunable floating active inductor based on modified tunable grounded active inductor(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc, 2015) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, RamazanA new Tunable Floating Active Inductor (TFAI) based on modified Tunable Grounded Active Inductor (TGAI) is proposed. Multi regulated cascade stage is used in TGAI to boost gain of input impedance and inductor value thus the Q factor enhancement obtained. The arrangement of Multi-Regulated Cascade (MRC) stage is caused the input transistor which determines AI self-resonance frequency to be as small as possible and it is free of body effect which is crucial in sub-micron technology. Compared to traditional CMOS spiral inductors, the active inductor proposed in this paper can substantially improve its equivalent inductance and quality factor. This TFAI was designed using the AMS 0.18 um RF CMOS process, which demonstrates an adjustable quality factor of 10?567 with a 6?284 nH inductance. The Q factor and value of active inductor is adjusted with bias current and flexible capacitance (varactor), respectively. The self-resonance frequency for both grounded and floating AI is about 6.2 GHz. The proposed active inductor also shows wide dynamic range and higher quality factor compared to conventional floating active inductor circuits.Yayın A low loss, low voltage and high Q active inductor with multi-regulated cascade stage for RF applications(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, RamazanNumerous structural planning of active inductors have been proposed as of not long ago in literature which showing tuning conceivable outcomes, low chip area and offering integration facility, they constitute promising architecture to replace passive inductors in RF circuits. The modified of a conventional active inductor based on Gyrator-C topology consisting of both transconductance stages realized by common-source configuration with multi-regulated cascade stage is presented.

In order to achieve this property, a new input topology has been employed which consists of cascode structure with a diode connected transistor. Furthermore, the proposed input topology makes the device robust in terms of its performance over variation in process, voltage and temperature. Additionally, RC feedback is used to cancel series-loss resistance of the active inductor, which allows self-resonant enhancement as well. Schematic and post-layout simulation results show the theoretical validity of the design. To validate the design feasibility for process, voltage and temperature changes, Monte Carlo and temperature analysis are done. Suggested structure shows inductor behavior in the frequency range of 0.3–11.3 GHz. Maximum quality factor is obtained as high as 2.1k at 5.9 GHz. Total power consumption is as low as 1 mW with 1.8 V power supply.Yayın A method for low-pass filter designing by commensurate transmission lines(IEEE, 2016) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Köprü, RamazanIt is well known that the complex Richards-Plane is a transformed domain of Laplace-Plane which is obtained under a tangent hyperbolic mapping. Network functions generated in terms of Richards's frequency are periodic in actual frequencies with periodicity of pi. Once a low-pass prototype network function is designed in Richards's domain, then its periodic feature makes the corresponding periodic band-pass network function to appear at the certain bands repetitively in the frequency axis. Depend on the application requirements, designer can choose the interested band among these repetitive bands. In this work, a filter is built with microstrip commensurate transmission lines in GSM operation pass-band (0.8 <= f <= 2.4 GHz) . This network can be used in communication applications which are designed to operate in the range of GHz as well as the application in a microstrip patch antenna. In the proposed design, Simplified Real Frequency Technique (SRFT) is employed in the frequency detection network, and the simulation result of microwave office tool (AWR) confirms the theoretical result obtained by MATLAB.Yayın A new high performance CMOS active inductor(IEEE, 2016) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, Ramazan; Saatlo, Ali NaderiA new high-performance active inductor with ability to tune its self-resonance frequency and quality factor without affecting each other is presented in this letter.
