This paper presents a fully differential class-AB current mirror OTA that improves the common-mode behavior of a topology that presents very good differential-mode performance but poor common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR). The proposed solution requires a low-current auxiliary circuit driven by the input signal, to compensate the effect of the common-mode input component. Simulations in 40-nm CMOS technology show a net reduction of common-mode gain of more than 90[Formula: see text]dB without affecting the differential-mode behavior; a sample-and-hold amplifier exploiting the proposed amplifier has also been simulated.

High performance of fully differential operational transconductance amplifier is designed and implemented using a 0.18-μm CMOS process. The implemented op-amp uses common mode feedback (CMFB) circuit operating in weak inversion region which does not affect other electrical characteristics due to eliminating common mode (CM) levels automatically leading to improve CM rejection ratio (CMRR) of the amplifier significantly. Moreover, the output stage has class-AB operation so that its current can be made larger due to increasing the output current dynamically using adaptive biasing circuit. Additionally, the AC currents of the active loads have been significantly reduced using negative impedances to increase the gain of the amplifier. The results show the GBW 2.3 MHz, slew rate 2.6 V/μs and 1% settling time 150 ns with a capacitive load of 15 pF. This amplifier dissipates only 6.2 μW from a 1.2 V power supply.

A very high bandwidth class AB (Push-Pull) current amplifier using the compensation resistor technique is presented and analyzed. Such technique stands as a powerful method of bandwidth enhancement for general circuits using CMOS current mirrors. The proposed bandwidth is enhanced from 675 MHz for the uncompensated current amplifier to 745MHz for the compensated one without affecting the current gain and other design parameters such as power consumption and output swing. The circuit exhibits a current gain of 20 dB and consumes 1.48 mW for ?2.5V power supply voltage. All simulation results were performed using Hspice tool with 0.35^m CMOS TSMC parameters.
