Task is to design a folded cascode with single ended output[Differential amplifier + common gate stage]
Conditions required are:

Technology TSMC 180nm technology*
VDD 3.3
CL ≥ 500fF
Current mirror ratios ≤ 20
Power Dissipation ≤ 3mW
DC Gain ≥ 80 dB
UGB ≥ 600 MHz
Phase margin ≈ 55 degree
CMRR ≥120dB
PSRR ≥ 100dB

I set up the bias circuit, along with the schematic with all mosfets in saturation. Also i got gain 95dB but the problem is to set the UGB and Phasemargin simultaneously... Please help...
 

Have you done the hand calculation? For your design, to achieve the 600Mhz UGB, the Gm of differential input stage should be at least 300uA/V, so plz check is that Gm1 lower than the 300uA/V. If it does, you can try to increase the bias current to increase the Gm1.
