Performance Evaluation of a FinFET -based Dual-Output Second Generation Current Conveyor

Abstract

This paper presents an optimal design of a high performance DO-CCII based on FinFETs. Proposed DO-CCII works on supply voltage of $\pm 0.9\mathrm{V}$, The performance of the CCII has been thoroughly investigated in terms of DC, AC and transient characteristics of branch currents. CCII shows excellent high frequency response of currents. The 3dB BW for currents is 11 GHz. CCII provides excellent performance over its CMOS counterpart. Performance investigation has been done using HSPICE simulations.
