I tried with capacitor before the node and the amplification is far worse and same problem occurs. Then I tried with inductor and results are the same. Loss of power after the L network. I read 2 papers with this topology and both use a short circuit between the D of nmos and S of PMOS. I think...
hmm? Vsg=0.9V > |Vt|=0.5V
so Vsd>Vsg-|Vt|
Vs-Vd>0.9-0.5
1.8-Vd>0.4
so Vd<1,4V
To work on saturation. Isnt that right for the PMOS?
Also if I transient analyse the short circuit of drain of m4 with Source of m0-m1 I get 155mV peak to peak and at drain of M0 M1 I have 2.5V peak to peak.
I have the schematic of the photo working at 2.4 GHz. I clearly get around 3V peak to peak before C0 but at my port2 (50ohm) I get like 160mV.
I have done matching and have checked it. Doing an SP simulation Z22 is approximately 50ohm with zero imaginary and Zm2 the same. Also S22 is around...
The parasitics I am seeking (without any success), are those from a metal 1 node to the substrate (the capacitance). Is there anyway to find that? Is it some pF or fF? Is it Cox * w * L of the wire?
I am interested in creating a design that takes into account capacitance parasitics in some nodes of the circuit. How am I supposed to know the parasitics roughly before the layout? Is it ok if I just use a grounded capacitor in connection with that node? And what is going to be its value??? I...
This is my problem https://www.edaboard.com/threads/316424/
And I just figured out that I need a PA stage. Am I right? So I am trying to get some infos on what class to use and how to connect it with my circuit which apparently is not a PA but a DA. I am working at UMC 0.18 trying to make a...
I work at 2.4Ghz.
My PA stage seems to work fine but I can control the peak and lower it if its a problem (Its just a trade off between Pin and Ampification). The 2V peak is what I got with a transient analysis before the Matching network I used and I am pretty sure its in saturation region. I...
So I have a folded cascode PA working in A class and i have an output of 2V before the matching network. If I just drive it with an L matching network to a 50 ohm load I get at best 100mV output. I assume the culprit is the big output resistance of the folded cascode (measured 870-4700j). I...
Ok so I get the transient response of the output of my circuit and i want the Power spectrum. I ve been using dft from the calculator but shows the voltages of various frequencies (devided by 2 as i figured out) and not the power. Is there such an option so that i can see the power of each...
Kn= u0 * Cox right?
u0 is supposed to be 332.1 from the model parameters. What are the units?
+ DWG = -3.396E-09 DWB = 1.346E-09 U0 = 332.1 UA = -1.17E-09
cause i find a value of Kn = 2.73 ??? isnt supposed to be around 10^(-6)
Cox= epsilon0 * epsilonSiO2 / tox= 8.22 mF/m^2?
TOX = 4.2E-09
So i am building a front end of some type of circuit and it appears that the first stage of the circuit I make is being affected by the output impendance of the previous stage. Before my circuit there is a VGA. So what is the typical output impendance of VGAs in 0,18u technologies? I am more...
Hi From me,
I am about to present the latest papers about ATPG (automatic test pattern generation) and although i have understood every smallest detail i havent understood the most basic stuff. Well most of them are about producing relaxed tests. Whats the point of that? The only assumption i...
