Abstract
Low-voltage high-speed switched-capacitor (SC) circuit design without using voltage bootstrapper is presented. The basic building block used for low-voltage SC circuit design is the auto-zeroed integrator (AZI), which can work at both low voltage and high sampling frequency. With this method, two low-voltage SC systems were successfully designed and implemented in 1.2-/spl mu/m CMOS technology. The first one is a fully differential SC bandpass biquad working at 1.5 V and 5.0-MHz clock frequency. The measured Q value is 8.0 at the center frequency of 833 kHz. The second one is a fully differential fourth-order bandpass /spl Delta//spl Sigma/ modulator that also works at 1.5 V and 5.0 MHz. Its measured third-order intermodulation is less than -78 dBc due to the low distortion characteristic of AZI. The measured signal-to-noise ratio of the modulator is 61 dB within the narrow band of 25 kHz centered at 1.25 MHz.
