Abstract:
The main objective of this research is to design and simulate single ended two stage
CMOS op amp by using OrCAD PSPICE design and simulation software, based on
analog and digital electronic devices and advanced integrated circuit design fundamentals.
Designers are continuously working toward trades-off solutions between DC
open loop gain, input/output voltage swings, speed, power dissipation and gain bandwidth.
The two stage CMOS op amp circuit proposed in this research tries to increase
the DC open loop gain, phase margin, and reduce power dissipation. The two stage
CMOS op amp was analyzed by considering the effects of aspect ratios on the characteristics
of the design parameters such as, nodal voltage, node current, PD ICMR,
voltage swing, SR, DC open loop gain, UGB, and CMRR when operating at ± 1.8V
power supply using 1.0µ m CMOS technology. The designed two stages CMOS op
amp was found to exhibit a DC open loop gain of 128.802dB, UGB of 2.1711MHz,
SR of -40.0V/µs ; 40.05V/µs, and CMRR of 128.802dB, PD of 0.0457mW, ICMR of
2.837V.
