Abstract :
Low voltage current mirror (LVCM) based on floating gate MOSFET (FGMOS) has been presented in this paper. The LVCM has output current range of 100 nA to 500 μA, high output resistance (1.35 MΩ at 500 μA), high bandwidth (500 MHz) and low input compliance voltage (0.4 V at 20 μA input current and 0.6 V at 300 μA input current). The LVCM design has been verified using P-Spice for 0.5 μm technology and the error in current transfer is observed to be less than ±0.1%. Simulations have also been carried out for p-type LVCM and bipolar LVCM.
