Abstract :
High performance first and third-generation current conveyor suitable for low voltage applications are presented in this paper. The presented third-generation current conveyor (CCIII) is designed based on the proposed first-generation current conveyor (CCI) which consists of a ldquohalfrdquo class-AB input stage and wide-swing current mirror. Post-simulation results using TSMC 0.18 mum CMOS process model show that the proposed CCI and CCIII performs good accuracy and frequency response at 1.8 V supply voltage.
