Abstract

This paper presents a new fully differential operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) for low-voltage and fast-settling switched-capacitor circuits in digital CMOS technology. The proposed two-stage OTA is a hybrid class A/AB that combines a folded cascode as the first stage with active current mirrors as the second stage. It employs a hybrid cascode compensation scheme, merged Ahuja and improved Ahuja style compensations, for fast settling.
