In this paper, we discuss and provide a detailed tutorial of four different methods for analytically evaluating the harmonic
distortion in class-AB stages. All the methods are suitable for pencil-and-paper analysis and are based on modeling the stage
with a specific non-linear function. We analyze them in details and extend some of them for predicting harmonic distortion
behavior in a wide range of input signal amplitude. Comparisons made by means of simulations, reveal that some methods are
more precise than others but require more computational effort. On the contrary, some of them are simple to use but are less
precise. Moreover, some are more appropriate for predicting HD2 and others for HD3, only. Results of the present paper may be used by designers to choose the more efficient method for analyzing distortion
in class-AB stages.

A new technique for CMOS class-AB output stages is introduced in this Letter. The technique uses a master–slave configuration
of a complementary common-source output stage. It offers the advantage that the quiescent and minimum currents of the output
stage can be independently tuned. The effectiveness of the proposed technique was verified by simulations using a standard
n-well 0.18 μm CMOS process with 1 V supply voltage. A voltage buffer, that includes the proposed output stage, is able to
drive a capacitive load of 0.5 nF obtaining −63 dB total harmonic distortion. The topology features also power efficiency
of about 63% for a pure resistive output load equal to 50 Ω. 相似文献

A new family of class-AB control circuits for bipolar rail-to-rail output stages of operational amplifiers is presented. Step by step, we report the development of five simple class-AB control circuits showing the advantages of using parallel feedforward. The circuits have been designed in such a way that temperature, supply voltage and process parameters have little influence. To test the output stages, one of them has been implemented in a very simple two-stage operational amplifier on a semi-custom chip. Measurements show a bandwidth of 2.5 MHz, a gain of 40 dB, a quiescent current of 23µA and a maximum output current of 250µA. Simulation results of three other simple operational amplifiers with the new class-AB control circuits are shown, which have a higher gain and maximum output current. 相似文献

This work reports the development of design model for n-well guard rings in a CMOS process utilizing a low-doped epitaxial layer on a highly doped substrate. The validity of the model has been judged by a wide range of experimental data measured from the fabricated n-well guard ring structures with guard ring width as parameter. From the model developed, guidelines have been drawn to minimize the guard ring width while critically suppressing the amount of electrons escaping from the guard ring 相似文献

The goal of this paper is to provide some useful design guidelines at the device level regarding the main challenges to be typically faced in the design and integration of Geiger-mode avalanche diodes in a standard CMOS process. Different techniques are found in literature in order to avoid premature edge breakdown with the aim of limiting the electric field at the edges to be weaker than in the multiplication region. In this article, the use of such techniques, the conditions where they can effectively work and above all their limitations are studied by means of TCAD simulations for various diode architectures. Additionally, the noise performance is discussed by focusing on the band-to-band tunneling and shallow trench isolation enhanced dark count rates. Geiger-mode bias techniques as well as a synthesis on the pros and cons of the various avalanche diode architectures are finally presented aiming at facilitating future design choices. 相似文献

A tutorial on the design and development of automatic speaker-recognition systems is presented. Automatic speaker recognition is the use of a machine to recognize a person from a spoken phrase. These systems can operate in two modes: to identify a particular person or to verify a person's claimed identity. Speech processing and the basic components of automatic speaker-recognition systems are shown and design tradeoffs are discussed. Then, a new automatic speaker-recognition system is given. This recognizer performs with 98.9% correct decalcification. Last, the performances of various systems are compared 相似文献

A very low-voltage operational amplifier in a standard CMOS process with a 0.75 V threshold voltage is presented. It uses a novel dynamically biased output stage based on the switched-capacitor approach. Thanks to this, drive performance is greatly improved and accurate current control is also achieved. The amplifier is capable of working with a power supply as low as 1.2 V while providing a -74 dB total harmonic distortion with a 700 mV peak-to-peak output voltage into a 500 Ω and 20 pF output load. The open-loop gain and the gain-bandwidth product are higher than 90 dB and 2.2 MHz, respectively 相似文献

Network computing is generally considered to be an unsuccessful initiative. It is strongly associated in the minds of many with the overhyped network computer that failed to capture a significant market share from PCs. However, network computing and network computers are not synonymous. In fact, one of the major benefits of network computing is the ability to tailor applications to the capabilities of heterogeneous client devices. Given the very fast growing mobile computing market, with its numerous and diverse terminal types, network computing could at last realise its full potential. This tutorial paper provides an overview of computing from the early mainframes to today's multiplicity of computing devices. The advantages of network computing are discussed and an overview is provided of some of the underpinning technologies. To provide an insight into the potential of network computing, two applications are described. Some overall conclusions are also given 相似文献

Customer needs and market segmentation are discussed. Industry response to network management issues and requirements are examined, covering the development of OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) standards for network management, specification of companion implementation agreements, and provision for conformance testing capability 相似文献
