Abstract :
A low-voltage, single-stage opamp realised using a conventional CMOS process is proposed. It was designed by using novel regulated-cascode transistors which have a lower output compliance voltage. A gain-enhancement active load has been built by using a bias-stabilising technique. It enables the opamp to achieve a DC gain of >68 dB with a reduction in supply voltage to ~1.3 V
