Abstract
We introduce a new class of feedback ampli fiers, called switched-mode operational ampli fiers (SMOAs) that ad- dress voltage-swing limitations of classical feedback ampli fiers in scaled CMOS technologies. By explo iting the increased timing res- olution available in scaled CMOS, SMOAs encode analog signal information in the time domain and provide near-rail-to-rail output-signal swing, high output-stage ef ficiency and better linearity. A 4th-order, 70 MHz continuous-time active-RC But- terworth filter is presented in 65 nm CMOS to demonstrate the advantages of SMOAs. The filter consumes 25.4 mW from a 0.6 V supply and achieves 55.8 d B peak SNDR while operating at a full-scale of 873 mV . Thanks to SMOAs, the full-scale (73% of the 0.6 V supply voltage ) and the bandwidth are respec- tively, a 2.5 and 6.2 improvement over other state-of-the-art low-voltage filters.
