Abstract

A tutorial overview of current-mode analog and digital circuit design techniques is presented. Basic current-mode analog signal processing circuits are reviewed. Switched-current sampled-data filtering techniques are covered, and recent advances in current-mode continuous-time filtering techniques are described. Current-mode digital techniques for use in precision mixed-mode applications are summarized. Current-mode circuits are a viable alternative to voltage-mode circuits for implementation in low-voltage scaled CMOS and BiCMOS technologies
