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 Metamutator applications: a quadrature MOS only oscillator and transconductance/transimpedance amplifiers(Springer New York LLC, 2016-06-18) Göknar, İzzet Cem; Yıldız, Merih; Minaei, ShahramNMOS based circuit realizations of a sinusoidal quadrature oscillator, a transconductance, a transimpedance amplifier are presented. All the circuits are constructed with a voltage-mode “Metamutator” consisting of an analog adder and a subtractor which is one of its possible realizations. The most important feature of the proposed circuits is their extremely simple structures containing only twelve NMOS transistors (six for adder, six for subtractor). Another significant advantage of the proposed circuits is that no external passive element is needed for the oscillator and only one resistor is used for each amplifier circuit; a variable resistor can provide gain adjustability. The post-layout simulations of all the proposed circuits have been executed using TSMC 0.25 µm process parameters with ±1.25 V power supply voltage.Yayın Low-loss active inductor with independently adjustable self-resonance frequency and quality factor parameters(Elsevier Science BV, 2017-06) Köprü, Ramazan; Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Saatlo, Ali NaderiThis work presents a new low-loss active inductor whose self-resonance frequency and quality factor parameters can be adjusted independently from each other. 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.
