Abstract :
This paper shows that the use of the series-parallel association of transistors can substitute with advantages transistors with arbitrary W and L. Also, the use of composite transistors allows the design of current dividers which can be used for D/A conversion. As a consequence, it becomes clear that the design of high performance analog circuits in a conventional SOG is possible
