Abstract

The power budget is a very stringent requirement for portable instruments. In this paper, static dynamic methods for ultra-low power and voltage are identified like gate driven, bulk driven (non-conventional method), and dynamic threshold methods which are applied on basic differential amplifier cell, and comparative analysis is performed for various parameters like power dissipation, gain bandwidth product, etc. The ultra-low voltage is selected for low power dissipation and simulations performed under TSMC 180 nm Technology node. The results show that the dynamic threshold method (gate driven, bulk driven) method is superior as compared to other methods in the aspect of all performance parameters. For selected technology nodes, total power dissipation is 4nW and maximum gain 40 dB with the acceptable value of the gain bandwidth product.
