Abstract :
A low-powered super-low gain bandwidth (SL-GBW) amplifier with a small area is discussed. The circuit has a transition Frequency fT of 38 kHz (including gain stage, A), a power consumption of 150 nW, a phase margin PM≃70°, a total area of 300×36 μm 2 and a minimum current per transistor of 7 nA which is far above the leakage current after irradiation. The circuit was implemented in the radiation hard SOI BiCMOS technology of DMILL
