I wanted to design a High-speed Op-amp,i referred text book like Allen.Holberg.

But i am not meeting my Specification,I am using Tanner S-edit for simulation results.

After calculations the overall gain is 70v/v,but according to my specification it is 3000v/v,really i am out of my domain .

Plz can any one help me out, and is there any other method or Text which describes the actual calculation for designing a two-satge High-speed Op-amp....

I am working on 250nm technology and included some of the model parameters calculated...

Some of the parameters calculated are::

K'n= Un*Cox= 284.05cm2*6.166E-7=175uA/V2.

K'p= Up*Cox= 100cm2*6.166E-7= 62uA/V2.

Lambda(0.6um/1.8um):LAMBDAn=0.158,LAMBDAP=0.023.

Vthn=0.37,Vthp= -0.4935.

I wanted to increase the gain to 100Mhz, can any one help me in this..........
 

i think there must be some transistors in linear region so that the gain is small.

Hi
In my opinion, you should start from the gain spec. Your gain is >=70db. let say gain is 80db = 10000

Gain = Gain1* Gain2
Gain1= gm2*Rout1,2 = gm2*ro1*ro2/(ro1 + ro2) = gm2/Id2 *[ VA1*VA2/(VA1 + VA2)]

Gain2= gm6*Rout6,7 = gm6/Id6 * [VA6*VA7/(VA6 + VA7)]

VA = Leff* 1/lambda (Leff = Ldrwn - 2Ld) choose Ldrwn =1um ---> Leff = 1 - 2*0.25=0.5um

From gain equation with knowing gm2 (from GBW), Id2 (from slew rate Id2 = Id5/2) and VA ----> gm6/Id6

We also know gm6/Id6 = 2/Vov6 --->Vov6 --->(W/L)6 buy choosing Id6.
You can do sizing the remaining transistor easy. Good luck

BTW: later you will have phase margin problem because I looked at your equation , you do not mention about it

Hi
Actually,I am doing theoritical calculations based on some equations given in Allen.Hollberg text(book name:CMOS analog design).

He has given some equations relating to W/L or Gm on,how to design a Two-Stage Op-amp.....

So having written the specification,i am calculating to meet the spec.....

Still i have not gone to the actual simulation part...after calculating i charaterize my design using tanner-tool........

I have attached the calculated part with this reply.......

Thanku very much,I will try with this.......
