摘要
A novel current operational amplifier, in which the traditionally adopted input current follower is replaced by an input stage that exhibits current gain and single-input-to-differential-output conversion, is presented. Due to this, increased values of both dc gain and common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) are obtained in the overall amplifier. A CMOS implementation, along with postlayout simulations, which are in good agreement with expected data, is also included. The proposed design is supplied with 2.5 V, dissipates 0.7 mW, and provides a nominal dc gain, a gain-bandwidth product, and a CMRR (at dc) of 72 dB, 28 MHz, and greater than 100 dB, respectively.
