Low voltage fully differential CMOS current feedback operational amplifier

This paper presents a new CMOS fully differential current feedback operational amplifier (FDCFOA). The proposed CMOS realization of the FDCFOA is based on a novel class AB fully differential buffer circuit. Besides the proposed FDCFOA circuit is operating at supply voltages of /spl plusmn/1.5 V, it has a total standby current of 400 /spl mu/A. The applications of the FDCFOA to realize variable gain amplifier, fully differential integrator, and fourth order fully differential maximally flat low pass filter are given. The fourth order filter provides 8 dB gain and a bandwidth of 4.3 MHz to accommodate the wideband CDMA standard. The proposed FDCFOA and its applications are simulated using CMOS 0.35 /spl mu/m technology.
