Analog IC Design First – A OPAMP Design Example. 報告人:何建興 Date: 15th NOV, 2007
Agenda • 1. What is Analog Signal? • 2. Elements Used in Electronic Products. • 3. Why OPAMP. • 4. How an OPAMP works. • 5. What is MOS? MOS Basic Characteristic. • 6. A Design Example. • 7. Is It the best design? • 8. Is Direct Shrink Possible? • 9. Q&A
What is Analog Signal? • Analog signals in Integrated Circuits can be in the form of Voltage or Current (or Power). • They are continuous signals, (amplitude vs. time). Voice and Audio signals are good examples of analog signals. • If a threshold was set, then an Analog signal can be easily converted to Digital signal. • Example: ADAD_DA
Elements used in Electronic products • Resistors, Capacitors, Inductors, Transistors and Diodes are basic devices (elements) in Integrated Circuit. • Many basic building blocks (IP) can be composed of these devices. • Ex: 1. RAM’s basic devices – MOS(RAM cell + logic circuit, sense Amp.) + Capacitors. • 2. Logic circuit – CMOS. (PMOS + NMOS) • 3. USB interface – MOS + Resistors.
Elements used in Electronic products (continued) • 4. Recorder (ADC), Player (DAC) – MOS • + Resistors + Capacitors. • 5. Regulator – MOS + Resistors. • 6. ESD PAD – MOS + Diode + Resistors. The IP (Intellectual Property ) listed above are able to construct a MP3 player Chip. • Example: 1234 • Many Analog blocks need OPAMP.
WHY OPAMP? • 1. OPAMP (Operational Amplifier) are one of the most important building blocks in Analog IC design. It can be used to do addition, subtraction, multiplication, logarithm, …operations. • Filters, Integrators, Oscillators Regulators, … etc. all include OPAMP. • Symbol of OPAMP • Examples:
How An OPAMP Works? • 1. There are 5 nodes on an OPAMP, they are Positive (V+) terminal, Negative (V-) terminal, Output (Vo) terminal, Power (VDD) and Ground (GND). • 2. An ideal OPAMP characteristic: (I) infinite input resistance. (II) infinite open loop gain. (III) v+ = v- when negative feedback configuration.
How An OPAMP Works? (continued) • 3. An real CMOS OPAMP can have: (I) Very large input resistance (Ri) >1M ohm. input current =0 (II). Large but not finite open loop gain (A) > 1000 (60dB). • 4. Examples: • 5. Insight
What is MOS? MOS Basic Characteristic. • MOS : Metal –Oxide-Semiconductor • Example
A Design Example. • 1. Specification: given a voltage 1.25V, design a OPAMP to achieve 2.5V output. Precision +- 1mV, : means A0>1000. settling time < 1us, means ft>1M. • 2. Schematic:
Is It the best design? • 1. The MOS size (aspect ratio) which we just designed is not the unique solution. We can do it better. • Based on the design we just finished, we can tune the MOS size to achieve: (i) smaller area (ii) consume less current. Both goals are the popular topic on SoC for the Cost issue. • They are many methods to optimize this design, only if they are immune to process variations.
