The loop gain's expression of the current-mode converter is derived by employing an advanced model of a current-mode control converter. After analyzing the loop gain's expression, which illustrates the method of selecting suitable frequency compensation for the control loop,a novel pole-zero tracking frequency compensation is proposed. Based on theoretical analysis, a DC-DC buck converter with high stability is designed with 0.5μm-CMOS technology. The simulated results reveal that the stability of the converter is independent of the load current and the input voltage. Moreover,the converter provides a full load transient response setting time of less than 5μs and overshoots and undershoots of less than 30mV.展开更多

It is confirmed that this theory is efficient in guiding the logicdesign of current-mode CMOS circuits at switch level.展开更多

Two nodal admittance matrices(NAM) of the filter are then educed. Furthermore, these two matrices are expanded through NAM expansion approach, generating one current-mode Sallen-Key filter, which uses two compact voltage differential trans-conductance amplifiers(VDTAs) and two grounded capacitors, implements not only one low-pass transfer function but two band-pass transfer functions, and provides the non-interrelated control between the natural frequency and quality factor. As an example of the synthesized filter, a second-order VDTA filter with fo=1 MHz, Q=1, HLP=-HBP1=HBP2=1 is designed. The used synthesis approach has been confirmed with the help of circuit and computer analysis.展开更多

The features of these controllers are that: the output parameters can be electronically/independently controlled by adjusting corresponding bias currents in the proportional, integral, and deviation controllers;circuit description of the PID controller is simply formulated, it consists of four CCCDBAs cooperating with two grounded capacitors, and PI and PD controllers are composed of three CCCCDBAs and a grounded capacitor. Without any external resistor, the proposed circuits are very suitable to develop into integrated circuit architecture. The given results from the PSpice simulation agree well with the theoretical anticipation. The approximate power consumption in a closed loop control system consisting of the PI, PD and PID controller with low-pass filter passive plant are 4.03 mW, 4.85 mW and 5.71 mW, respectively, at ±1.5 V power supply voltages.展开更多

The proposed configuration employs two VDTAs along with grounded capacitors and offers the following advantageous features 1) fully and electronically independent control of condition of oscillation (CO) and frequency of oscillation (FO);2) explicit current-mode quadrature oscillations;and 3) low active and passive sensitivities. The workability of proposed configuration has been demonstrated by PSPICE simulations with TSMC CMOS 0.18 μm process parameters.展开更多
