Abstract

A method is presented in this paper for the design of a high frequency CMOS operational amplifier (Op-Amp) which operates at 3V power supply using tsmc 0.18 micron CMOS technology. The OPAMP designed is a two-stage CMOS OPAMP followed by an output buffer. This Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA) employs a Miller capacitor and is compensated with a current buffer compensation technique. The unique behaviour of the MOS transistors in saturation region not only allows a designer to work at a low voltage, but also at a high frequency. Designing of two-stage op-amps is a multi-dimensional-optimization problem where optimization of one or more parameters may easily result into degradation of others. The OPAMP is designed to exhibit a unity gain frequency of 2.02GHz and exhibits a gain of 49.02dB with a 60.5 0 phase margin. As compared to the conventional approach, the proposed compensation method results in a higher unity gain frequency under the same load condition. Design has been carried out in Tanner tools. Simulation results are verified using S-edit and W-edit.
