A low-voltage low-power wide-range CMOS variable gain amplifier. Motamed, A., Hwang, C., & Ismail, M. IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Analog and Digital Signal Processing, 1998. abstract bibtex In this paper, a compact low-power (LP) low-voltage (LV) metal-oxide-semiconductor-only (MOS-only) variable gain amplifier (VGA) is introduced. This amplifier based on complementary MOS (CMOS) transistors operating in strong inversion is composed of a pseudo-exponential current-to-voltage converter, analog multiplier, and output stage. The gain of the amplifier is controlled exponentially by a novel wide-range pseudo-exponential current-to-voltage converter implemented with two back-to-back connected current mirrors exhibiting superb exponential characteristic. Also, a new LV/LP composite transistor is introduced to increase the input dynamic range of the multiplier. The amplifier is fabricated using a 2-μm MOSIS n-well process, and its simulation and measurement results are shown in detail. © 1998 IEEE.
