Low voltage analog circuit design differs considerably from those of high voltage analog circuit design. This paper present the basic cell knows as “flipped voltage follower” for low voltage/ low power operation. The detailed classification of basic topologies derived from the FVF cell is presented and there is a low voltage current mirror based on FVF cell has been presented. All the Circuit has been simulated using Hspice tool 0.18µm CMOS Technology. Different quality factors such as frequency response, power consumption are considered. A compression also made between previous current mirror and new designed current mirror. The layout of the current mirror has been also designed using Cadence tool. Keywords: Analog integrated circuits, low power low voltage design. 1-INTRODUCTION Downscaling of CMOS process has forced analog circuit to operate with continuously decreasing supply voltage. Downscaling of CMOS has been mainly due to need of reduced power consumption of the digital circuitry in mixed mode very large scale integration (VLSI) system and to prevent oxide breakdown with decreasing gate oxide thickness. In addition portable electronic equipments are based on the low power consumption and low supply voltage. Several technique have been presented to reduce supply voltage requirement in analog and mixed signals circuits, among them folding triode mode and sub threshold operation of MOS transistor, folding gate techniques and current mode processing [1]. 2. Voltage Follower A basic cell called voltage follower or voltage buffer used for low voltage analog circuit design. A basic cell for low voltage/ low power is identified. Let us consider the common drain amplifier frequently used as a voltage buffer. If body effect is ignored the circuit follows the input voltage with a dc shift i.e. Vo= Vi+ Vsgm1 where Vsgm1 is the source-to-gate voltage of transistor M1. There are some drawback of the voltage follower, in many applications the output resistance is not enough low. It can be only be decreased by increasing the Trans conductance gain gm. this require a large current biasing and large W/L dimension. ISSN-2277-1956/V1N2-258-273 259 Low Voltage Analog Circuit Design Based on the Flipped Voltage Follower Figure 1 Voltage Follower The gate source voltage of M1 varies with the input signal, this leads to distortion that increase at high frequency. The slew rate is nonsymmetrical since the sourcing capability is very large, while the sinking capability is limited by the bias current Ib. 3. Flipped Voltage Follower It is essentially a cascade amplifier with negative feedback where the gate terminal of M1 is used as input terminal and its source as output terminal. It is characterized by very low output impedance due to shunt feedback provided by M2, high low supply requirement close to a transistor threshold voltage VTH, low static power dissipation and high gain bandwidth. The name flipped voltage follower is based on the fact that FVF is biased on the drain side rather than the source side. Output current variation are absorbed by M2 which is denoted current sensing transistor, while the current in M1 remain constant, due to this the gate source voltage of M1 remain constant and distortion remain low even at higher frequency. A practical limitation of the FVF cell is that it gives very small input and output signal swing. Figure 2 Flipped Voltage Follower The circuit in Figure 2 is another voltage follower where the current through transistor M1 is held constant, independent on the output current. It could be described as a voltage follower with shunt feedback. Neglecting the short-channel effect, Vsg1 is held constant, and voltage gains are unity. 3.1.

Note that FVF can operate at a very low voltage supply, and that it is the operating condition we are interested in. By the analysis we get the valid range of operation for the input signal ܸ − (|்ܸ |ଶ − |்ܸ |ଵ − ඨ 2ܫை 2ܫ 2ܫை ܸ < ݓ௧ < ܸ − (|்ܸ |ଵ − ඨ ܹ − ඨ ܹ ݇ ( )ଵ ݇ ( )ଶ ݇ ( )ଵ ܮ ܮ ܮ (12) It is clear that the valid input signal range reduces with the transistor threshold voltage, which limits the applications of the FVF in deep submicron technologies. 4. Basic FVF Structures 4.1. FVF current sensors (FVFCS) The FVF cell can also considered to as a current sensing cell, and when used in this way it will be called a “FVF current sensor (FVFCS).” Let us consider node in Fig. 6 as the input current sensing node and that all transistors are properly biased to work in the saturation region. Due to the shunt feedback provided by transistor M2, the impedance at node x is very low and, this way, the amount of current that flows through this node does not modify the value of its voltage. Note that node x can source large current variations at the input and the FVF translates them into compressed voltage variations at output node .This voltage can be used to generate replicas of the input current as shown in Fig. 6 by means of transistor M5 . Fig. 7 shows the dc response of the circuit in Fig. 7. The output and the input currents are related through the expression Iout = Iin +Ib . The current can be easily removed from the output node using current mirroring techniques if this is needed for a specific application. Figure 6 FVF Current sensor Apart from this particular operating condition, the FVFCS can be operated with very low voltage supply. The minimum supply voltage is ܸ = |்ܸ | + 2ܸ௦௧ ; where |VTP| is the transistor threshold voltage and VDSsat is the minimum drain-to-source voltage to maintain the transistor in saturation region. ISSN-2277-1956/V1N2-258-273 263 Low Voltage Analog Circuit Design Based on the Flipped Voltage Follower Figure 7 DC response of the FVFCS Structure 4.2 FVF differential structure (DFVF) The first differential structure based on the FVF cell can be built by adding an extra transistor connected to node x , as it is shown in Fig. 8 [1]. This structure called the “FVF differential structure (DFVF).” As indicated in the previous section, the impedance at node x is very low and its voltage remains approximately constant for large currents through transistor M3 . If we consider quiescent conditions when V1 =V3 , and assuming the same transistor sizes for M1 and M3 , the condition IDM1 = IDM3 = Ib is satisfied. Differential voltage V1 -V3 generates current variations in M3 that follow the MOS square law. This is a very interesting property of the DFVF as the maximum output current can be much larger than the quiescent current Ib . Fig. 9 shows the dc transfer. Figure 8 Differential Flipped Voltage Follower Another characteristic of the DFVF is that the output is available as both a current (IDM3, or the current through transistor M2 replicated by means of a current mirror), and a voltage (node y ). This feature can be advantageously employed to simplify the circuit implementations reducing both noise and number of poles and zeros. Finally, the DFVF can also be operated with very low supply voltage. The minimum supply voltage is, as in the case of the FVFCS ܸ = |்ܸ | + 2ܸௌ௦௧ ,. Once again, with a supply of VMIN DD there would be no room for variation of the input signals V1 and V3. It is easy to obtain an expression relating the expected variation of V1 and V3 with the minimum supply voltage which maintains the DFVF cell properly biased. ISSN-2277-1956/V1N2-258-273 IJECSE,Volume1,Number 2 Neeraj Yadav et al. Figure 9 DC Response of the DFVF cell 4.3 FVF pseudo-differential pair cell (FVFDP): A FVFDP structure can be easily constructed by adding an extra transistor M4 at node x in DFVF structure, as shown in Fig. 10. This structure is known as “FVF pseudo differential pair (FVFDP).” Fig. 11 shows the dc output currents IDM3 IDM4 versus the differential input voltage V3-V4, in a typical case. The pseudo-differential pair also exemplifies the characteristic behaviour of a Class-AB circuit, where the quiescent output current Ib can be much lower than the peak value. In this case, we have considered that, under quiescent conditions, V1 =V3 =V4. That is, assuming perfect matching between transistors M1 ,M3 and M4, the voltage at the gate of corresponds to the common ା mode of M3 and M4: ܸଵ = య ర =VCMi. If the common-mode value VCMi of input voltages V3 and V4 is not equal to 1V ଶ the dc output characteristic has the same shape, but a dc level shift is applied to the curves of transistor currents in opposite directions of the horizontal axis. Figure 10 Basic FVFDP Structure The main difference between the DFVF and the FVFDP is that the latter has a true differential output. The output current of the DFVF can be large if V1 –V3 is positive and zero if V1 –V3 is negative, while in the FVFDP we can have positive or negative large differential output currents (Iout = IDM3 –IDM4) depending on the value of the input differential voltage (Vin = V3 –V4) . This pseudo-differential pair can be also operated with a minimum supply voltage of ܸ = |>? | + 2$JIF , as in the cases of the FVFCS and DFVF.

APPLICATIONS OF THE FVF CELL 5.1 Current Mirror 5.1.1 General properties A current mirror is an element with at least three terminals. The common terminal is connected to a power supply, and the input current source is connected to the input terminal. Ideally, the output current is equal to the input current multiplied by a desired current gain. If the gain is unity the input current is reflected to the output, leading to the name current mirror. Under ideal condition the current mirror gain is independent of input frequency, and the output current is independent of the voltage between the output and common terminals. Figure 12 Current mirror block diagrams referenced to (a) ground and (b) the positive supply. 5.1.2 Low –Voltage Current Mirror Based On the Flipped –Voltage Follower The well known flipped voltage follower (FVF) cell has been employed for realizing low voltage current mirrors. The minimum supply voltage requirement for the correct operation of the current mirror is equal to VTH+VDS, sat , making all of them compatible with the minimum power supply voltage requirement of the modern signal processing systems [J. Ramirez-Angulo, R.G. Carvajal., A. Torralba, J. Galan. A.P. Vega-Leal, J. Tombs, 2002]. One of the most widely used current mirror topologies in low-voltage signal processing is the conventional cascode current mirror is shown in Figure (2) ISSN-2277-1956/V1N2-258-273 IJECSE,Volume1,Number 2 Neeraj Yadav et al. Figure13 Conventional cascade current mirror With regards to the voltage restriction the minimum supply requirement is given by $$,<H = >O(P) + $J,IF(PQ) (12) Where VTH(M1) is the threshold voltage of the M1 and VDS, sat(M1) is the saturation voltage of the M7 . Other important factors that establish the capability of the current mirror in Figure 3.4 to operate in a low voltage environment are the minimum input and output voltages [8]. The corresponding expression are given by (13) and (14), respectively <H = >O(P) (13) RF <H = $J,IF(P) + $J,IF(PS) (14) The input and output resistance of the current mirror in figure are given by <H = 1 (P) (15) RF = (PS) . (P) . (PS) (16) An alternative topology of that shown in figure is based on the adaptive bias scheme given in Figure Figure14 Cascade current mirror with adaptive bias scheme. Another current mirror configuration that is widely used in low-voltage applications is that depicted in Figure 3.6. This is a cascode current mirror based on the FVF cell. The minimum required supply voltage and the minimum input voltage are also given by (1) and (2), while the minimum output voltage and output resistance are now [5] RF = $J,IF(P) + $J,IF(PS) (16) RF = (PS) .
