A CMOS Gm-C filter with variable cutoff frequency applicable for using in the direct conversion receiver is designed. The designed filter comprises the CMOS differential transconductors, and the gm of the transconductor is controlled by the bias voltage. This configuration can compensate variant of the cutoff frequency which could be generated by external noises, and also be used in multiband receiver. As a results of HSPICE simulation, the control range of the cutoff frequency is $1.5MHz{\sim}3.5MHz$ and the gain control range is $-2.8dB{\sim}2.6dB$. The layout of the designed 5th-order Elliptic low-pass filter is performed to fabricate a chip using $2.5V-0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS processing parameter.

A fully differential transconductor using the series composite transistor is proposed. Simulation results show that THD is less than 1.2% for the differential input signal of up to $1.5V_{p-p}$ when the input signal frequency is 10MHz. i he proposed transconductor is used to design a third-order elliptic Gm-C lowpass filter with 138kHz cutoff frequency for ADSL Tx filter. The design procedure is based on signal flow graph(SFG) of a doubly-terminated LC ladder filter by means of fully differential transconductors and capacitors. The filter is fabricated and measured with a $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process.

저 전력 소모는 의료용 이식 장치에서 매우 중요한 요소가 된다. 본 논문에 제안된 이식형 심장 박동 조절기의 감지 단에 필요한 저 전력 4차 Gm-C 필터는 다단 증폭 단으로 구현 되었다. 매우 큰 시상수를 구현하기 위해서 전류 분할 및 플로팅-게이트 기법이 적용된 OTA가 사용되었다. 측정 결과, 필터는 50 dB의 SFDR을 가지며, $1.8{\mu}$, W의 전력이 소모되었다. 전원 전압은 1.5 V가 공급되었고, 코어는 $2.4\;mm{\times}1.3\;mm$의 실리콘 면적을 차지한다. 제안된 필터는 1-poly 4-metal $0.35-{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정에서 제작되었다.

A novel design of contious-time filter for direct conversion receiver applications is proposed. The filter supports different modes including GSM, WCDMA. A 5th chebyshev filter is realized in a gm-C filter topology. The filter circuit is implemented in a standard CMOS $0.35{\mu}m$ processing parameter with a supply voltage of 2.5V. The HSPICE results show that the filter has 200KHz and 5MHz cutoff frequency, and each 3.4us and 85.44us gm value.

RFID Reader IC에 응용하기 위한 저전압 특성의 5차 일립틱 CMOS Gm-C 필터를 설계하였다. 설계된 필터는 CMOS 자기바이어스 차동 트랜스컨덕터를 설계하여 구성하였으며 차동 트랜스컨덕터는 기존의 자기 바이어스 차동증폭기의 이득특성을 개선하기 위하여 병렬형으로 구성되었다. 설계된 필터는 RFID 리더용 저전압 필터 설계사양에 따라 1.8V의 저전압으로 동작이 가능하도록 설계되었다. 1.8V, 0.18${\mu}m$CMOS 공정 파라미터를 사용하여 HSPICE 시뮬레이션 결과, 설계된 5차 일립틱 저역 필터가 설계사양인 1.35MHz의 차단주파수를 만족함을 확인하였다.

In this paper, the Gm-C filter for low voltage and low power applications using a fully-differential transconductor is presented. The designed transconductor using the series composite transistors and the low voltage composite transistors has wide input range at low supply voltage. A negative resistor load (NRL) technology for high DC gain of the transconductor is employed with a common mode feedback(CMFB). As a design example, the third-order Elliptic lowpass filter is designed. The designed filter is simulated and examined by HSPICE using TSMC $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS n-well parameters. The simulation results show 138kHz cutoff frequency and 11.05mW power dissipation with a 3.3V supply voltage.

A new CMOS voltage-controlled fully-differential transconductor is presented. The basic structure of the proposed transconductor is based on a four-MOS transistor cell operating in the triode or saturation region. It achieves a high linearity range of ${\pm}\;1\;V$ at a 1.5 V supply voltage. The proposed transconductor is used to realize a new fully-differential Gm-C low-pass filter with a minimum number of transconductors and grounded capacitors. PSpice simulation results for the transconductor circuit and its filter application indicating the linearity range and verifying the analytical results using $0.35\;{\mu}m$ technology are also given.

본 논문에서는 연산 트랜스컨덕턴스 증폭기를 기반으로 하여 차단주파수 대역의 조정이 가능한 3-입력와 1-출력단을 갖는 Gm-C필터가 제안되었다. 제안된 필터는 대역통과, 저역통과 및 고역통과의 다기능 필터 특성을 갖는다. 구현된 필터의 중심주파수($f_c$)와 특성요소(Q)값은 다른 필터특성의 변형없이 독립적으로 조정이 가능할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 전체 시스템에 영향을 줄 수 있는 다양한 파라미터들과 기생요소들에 대한 감도특성과 비이상성분석이 수행되었다. 제안된 필터를 CMOS 소자로 구현하기 위하여 1.8V-0.18um 공정파라미터를 사용하였고 HSPICE를 활용하여 특성을 분석한 결과와 기 정리된 이론값들과 비교하여 나타내었다.

Low-voltage, low-power gm-C filter utilizing newly dveloped operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) is described in this paper. The OTA has only two MOS transistors in saturation region between $V_{DD}$ and GND, and thus low voltage operation is possible. To improve the linearity, the OTA is made differential. Common mode feedback, essential in differential circuit, requires no additional implemented in $0.8\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS process, and the center frequency can be controlled from 15MHz with 3.0V single power supply.
