| description | This paper provides the results of a comprehensive comparison between complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) amplifiers with low susceptibility to electromagnetic interference (EMI). They represent the state-of-the-art in low EMI susceptibility design. An exhaustive scenario for EMI pollution has been considered: the injected interference can indeed directly reach the amplifier pins or can be coupled from the printed circuit board (PCB) ground. This is also a key point for evaluating the susceptibility from EMI coupled to the output pin. All of the amplifiers are re-designed in a United Microelectronics Corporation (UMC) 180 nm CMOS process in order to have a fair comparison. The topologies investigated and compared are basically derived from the Miller and the folded cascode ones, which are well-known and widely used by CMOS analog designers. |
