Hi Everyone,

I am designing a multiplier circuit which has to act as a voltage squarer with Vout = (Vin^2)/25. The input waveform is sinusoidal with zero dc level ,100 mV peak to peak voltage and 10 kHz frequency.
I am having problem in adjusting biasing of the circuit .
I will be thankful if anybody can help.

If the signal is always sine and the same frequency convert it to DC first.

I am having problem in adjusting biasing of the circuit .
Vdd 100 0 1.5

I think your power supply voltage is too low for this design in a 0.35µm process with |Vth| ≈ 0.5V ; you'd better use Vdd=3V.

I'd suggest to set VP to about Vdd/3 by appropriate W/L values of M1..M4, respectively VO to about Vdd/2 by appropriate W/L values of N1..N4 . With the VTH0 values from the model files you can then calculate the X±x and Y±y values, where X resp. Y should be the mean (quiescent) values of the input nodes, x resp. y the half peak (sin) values of the applied signals.
 
Erikl , First of all I am thankful to your response.
Actually I have taken this design from an IEEE transaction. Author has taken Vdd as 1.5V in 0.35um process.

Hi,

Do you know what is the technology the author did use? Normally the mininum voltage for 0.35um process is 1.8V. What is value of Vth?
