An optimized CMOS second generation current conveyor

Abstract

A high performance second generation current conveyor (CCII) is presented in this paper. It has a current bandwidth of 1.8 GHz and a 4.52 GHz voltage transfer characteristic. Also, it gives 0.0016% and 0.0064% for voltage and current THD respectively, 0.003% and 0.015 as current and voltage relative errors respectively and -2.67 mV and -0.684 /spl mu/A as voltage and current offsets. The heuristic used to reach such performances is also detailed. SPICE simulation results are presented to show the good reached results.
