The CMOS four-quadrant analog multiplier for low-voltage low-power applications are presented in this thesis. The circuit approach is based on the characteristic of the LV (Low-Voltage) composite transistor which is one of the useful analog building block. SPICE simulations are carried out to examine the performances of the designed multiplier. Simulation results are obtained by 0.6㎛ CMOS parameters with 2V power supply. The basic configuration of the multiplier is the CMOS Gilbert cell with two LV composite transistors. The linear input range of the multiplier is over ±0.4V with a linearity error of less than 1.3%. The measured -3dB bandwidth is 288MHz and the power dissipation is 255 ㎼.

In this paper, we present a design method for improving the linearity and dynamic range of the analog current mode multiplier circuit, which is one of the key devices in an analog current mode AI processor. The proposed circuit consists of 4 quadrant translinear loops made up of NMOS transistors only, which minimizes physical mismatches of the transistors. The proposed circuit can be implemented at 117㎛ × 109㎛ in 0.35㎛ CMOS process and has a total harmonic distortion of 0.3%. The proposed analog current mode multiplier is expected to be useful as the core circuit of a current mode AI processor.

In this paper, a low-voltage CMOS squarer and a four-quadrant analog multiplier are presented. It is based on a source-coupled pair and a scaled-floating voltage generator which are modified to work as a voltage squaring and a sum/difference circuits. The proposed squarer/multiplier have been simulated with HSPICE, where -3㏈ bandwidth of 10MHz is achieved. The power consumption is about 0.6㎽, from a ${\pm}$1.5V supply, and the total harmonic distortion is less than 0.7%, with a 1.2V peak-to-peak 1MHz input signal.

This paper introduces analog FIR filters based on a distributed amplifier and analyzes the proposed filter's characteristics. A simple design method of an analog FIR filter based on the digital filter design technique is also introduced. The proposed analog FIR filters are a moving average(MA) and a comb type filters with no multiplier. This simple structures of the proposed filters may enable to operate at multi-GHz frequency range and applicable to combine a filter and an amplifier of RF system. The proposed analog FIR filters were implemented with standard $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The designed GHz analog FIR filters are simulated by Cadence Spectre and compared to the results of digital FIR filters obtained from MATLAB simulations. From the simulation results, the characteristics of the proposed analog FIR filters are fairly well matched with those of digital FIR filters.
