Power dissipation in portables: Design considerations using low-power CMOS ICs

When a CMOS circuit is in an idle state there is still some static power dissipation–a result of leakage current through nominally off transistors. Both nMOS and pMOS transistors used in CMOS logic ...

A true op-amp made from inverters

Ever-increasing demand for smaller, more efficient CPUs has driven CMOS fabrication deep into the nanometer scale. The supply scaling and device leakage of these fine processes adversely affects ...

Speeding Up NMOS

For years—decades, in fact—the NMOS transistor world has been on cruise control. NMOS is naturally faster and its performance has scaled better than PMOS. PMOS has had a cost advantage. But lately, it ...

Use Hybrid PMOS-NMOS Active Loads To Cut Substrate Noise In Differential Amplifiers

PMOS transistors are less vulnerable to substrate noise since they’re placed in separate wells; designers implement guard rings to attenuate the substrate noise propagation. However, substrate noise ...
