How to minimize the noise generated by differential amp?

how to reduce noise + rc

Can any body suggest how to minimize the noise generated by the diff amp?

refrigerator reduce noise

Having high gm for input transistors and low gm for load transistors reduce the noise factor.

R u getting noise in simulation itself or on circuit. If it is on cicuit use proper power supply bypass and higain amplifier. If it is in simulation do as sggested in first reply.
Hope this helps

Put it to run into the refrigerator

sorry, just kidding

Ensure that all the active components have the same gain factor ( by measuring each component and matching).

Another way is change input stage to PMOS

How to reduce noise??

The noise contribution of PMOS and NMOS current sources increases in proportion to their transconductance. This trend results in a trade-off between output voltage swings and input-referred noise:for a given current, as implied by gm=2Id/(Vgs-Vth), if the overgrive voltage of the current sources is minimized to allow large swings, then their transconductance is maximized.

Thanx for your replies!

Feedback can be used to decrease the noise! Can anybody show me how tge feedback can be implemented on that circuit?

Instead of increasing gm and using PMOS as the input stages, what is other suggestion form others?

How to reduce noise??

i think u can add a few picos Cap connect VDD to the Gate of PMOS bias.

What is the reason to add the caps?

Add RC filter can reduce the noise too

How to reduce noise??

Capacitor C in the bias line is needed to stabilize the circuit. C also reduces the bandwidth of the opamp resulting in lower noise.

(if wrong, pls put it right)
