The operational characteristics of superconducting amplifier using vortex flux flow were analyzed from an equivalent circuit in which its current-voltage characteristics for the vortex motion in YBCO microbridge were reflected. For the analysis of operation as an amplifier, dc bias operational point for the superconducting amplifier is determined and then ac operational characteristics for the designed superconducting amplifier were investigated. The variation of transresistance, which describes the operational characteristics of superconducting amplifier, was estimated with respect to conditions of dc bias. The current and the voltage gains, which can be derived from the circuit for small signal analysis, were calculated at each operational point and compared with the results obtained from the numerical analysis for the small signal circuit. From our paper, the characteristics of amplification for superconducting flux flow transistor (SFFT) could be confirmed. The development of the superconducting amplifier applicable to various devices is expected.

A 1.5V 70㏈ 100MHz CMOS class-AB complementary operational amplifier is presented. For obtaining the high gain and the high unity gain frequency, the input stage of the amplifier is designed with rail-to-rail complementary differential pairs which are symmetrically parallel-connected with the NMOS and the PMOS differential input pairs, and the output stage is designed to the rail-to-rail class-AB output stage including the elementary shunt stage technique. With this design technique for output stage, the load dependence of the overall open loop gain is improved and the push-pull class-AB current control can be implemented in a simple way. The designed operational amplifier operates perfectly on the complementary mode with 180$^{\circ}$ phase conversion for 1.5V supply voltage, and shows the push-pull class-AB operation. In addition, the amplifier shows the DC open loop gain of 70.4 ㏈ and the unity gain frequency of 102 MHz for $C_{L=10㎊∥}$ $R_{L=1㏁}$ Parallel loads. When the resistive load $R_{L}$ is varied from 1 ㏁ to 1 ㏀, the DC open loop gain of the amplifier decreases by only 2.2 ㏈.a$, the DC open loop gain of the amplifier decreases by only 2.2 dB.

We have constructed the magneto-operational amplifier(MOP) using the advantages of Hall device and an operational amplifier. The MOP necessarily requires a high impedance circuit, a differential-to-single-ended convert-sion circuit and feedback-input-element for operational amplifier characteristics. We have presented a new differential-to-single-ended conversion operational amplifier(DSCOP) having such characteristics. We have designed the MOP using the DSCOP and Hall device and simulated its characteristics, and finally we have constructed the system with discrete elements, and measured its magnetic characteristics.

A new configuration to realize the most general n-th order voltage transfer function is proposed. It employs only one operational transresistance amplifier (OTRA) as the active element. In the synthesis of the transfer function, the RC:-RC decomposition technique is used. To the best of author's knowledge, this is the first topology to be used in the realization of n-th order transfer function employing single OTRA.

In this appear, we proposed the new current mirror has large output resistance and excellent current matching characteristics. If supply voltage were lowered under the conventional CMOS operational amplifier, the wing of out put power could be restricted. So, the paper suggests a new way of differential operational amplifier circuit to solve the problem. The paper proposes that a new current mirror increases output swing and has a stable operation. We compare and verify characteristics of the proposed current mirror with the cascoded current mirror and the regulated current mirror through simulation.

Two kinds of simple active oscillators are proposed and analyzed assuming that operational amplifier has two-poles frequency characteristics. The first circuit is composed of one operational amplifier, one resistor and one grounded capacitor. The second oscillator is realized with one operational amplifier and three resitors. Proposed oscillators have the low sensitivity of the oscillation frequency for little variations of the passive element values. By the experimental results obtained with Op-Amp. ${\mu}A741$, the simple oscillators can be useful for the frequency range $1.25 KHz{\leq}f_{01}{\leq}40KHz$ for the active-RC type or $45.45 KHz{\leq}f_{02}{\leq}400KHz$ for the active-R oscillator, and it is shown to transform the active-R oscillator circuit into the voltage controlled type. Therefore, two kinds of oscillator circuit are attractive for the IC realization, because they have one operational amplifier, one resistor and one grounded capacitor, or three resistors.

This paper presents the design of a CMOS programmable slew rate operational amplifier based upon a newly proposed concept, that is a switched parallel current subtraction circuit with adaptive biasing technique. By utilizing the newly designed circuit, it was proven that slew rate was linearly controlled and power dissipation was optimized. If the programmable slew rate amplifier is employed into mixed signal system, it can furnish the convenience of timing control and optimized power dissipation. Simulated data showed the slew rate ranging from 5. 83V/$\mu$s to 41.4V/$\mu$s, power dissipation ranging from 1.13mW to 4.1mW, and the other circuit performance parameters were proven to be comparable with those of a conventional operational amplifier.
