June 20 - July 20, 2005 Dalian Institute of Technology, China Yann HU Current-Mode Analog Signal Processing Current-mode circuit techniques is an alternative to conventional and switched capacitor circuits for continuous and sampled-data analog signal-processing systems. Why Current-Mode? Low-voltage makes it difficult to design voltage-mode circuits with high linearity and wide dynamic range Current-mode circuits can operate with low power-supply voltages because of the small voltage swings associated with the low impedance nodes. Current-mode meets the requirements of high-frequency and high-accuracy circuits. Current-mode is fully compatible with digital systems. Low noise logic used in design of mixed-signal ICs Comparison between V-M and C-M Voltage mode: High input impedance Low output impedance Current mode: Low input impedance High output impedance Basic Current-mode Circuits Transfer function: It can perform 3 of the four basic processing operations Invert Scale (amplification) add Basic Switched-Current Circuits The fourth basic signal processing operation is delay. Switched-current circuit: (Track-and-hold) With MS on the circuit tracks the Iin: With MS turned off the circuit holds the IOUT current on the MS gate. The circuit has a current memory. Current Conveyors (CCI) (1) First generation current conveyor: iY = iX → ideal current source determined by iX → infinite impedance in Y (open circuit) vX = vY → ideal voltage source determined by vY → short circuit between vX and vY iZ = ±iX → ideal current source determined by iX → infinite impedance in Z (open circuit) Current Conveyors (CCI) (2) Equivalent scheme: A fictive short circuit between X and Y (vX = vY) Real CMOS circuit: M1 and M2 matched vX = vY M3 and M5 matched iZ = iX M3 and M4 matched iY = iX Current Conveyors (CCI) (3) Example 1: vX = vY, iX = iY R = - vX/iX Rin = vY/iY = - R Negative impedance Example 2: vX = vY R = - vY/iY Rin = vX/iX =
