Original Abstract

In this paper, novel low-voltage ultra-low-power differential voltage current conveyor (DVCC) based on folded cascode operational transconductance amplifier OTA with only one differential pairs floating-gate MOS transistor (FG-MOST) is presented. The main features of the proposed conveyor are design simplicity; rail-to-rail input voltage swing capability at a low supply voltage of +-0.5 V and ultra-low-power consumption of mere 10 uW. Thanks to these features, the proposed circuit could be successfully employed in a wide range of low-voltage ultra-low-power analog signal processing applications. Implementation of new multifunction frequency filter based on the proposed FG-DVCC is presented in this paper to take the advantages of the properties of the proposed circuit. PSpice simulation results using 0.18 um CMOS technology are included as well to validate the functionality of the proposed circuit.
