Novel Low-Voltage Low-Power Exponential Circuits and Variable Gain Amplifiers (VGA)

Two novel ultra-low-voltage (ULV) low-power (LP) variable gain amplifiers (VGA) are presented in this paper. These amplifiers based on complementary MOS transistors operating in weak inversion region are composed of pseudo-exponential current-to-current converters and analog multipliers. The gain of the amplifiers can be controlled by an exponential function circuit. The proposed circuits have been verified with the 0.25£gm CMOS technology by HSPICE simulations. The simulation results confirm the feasibility of the proposed VGAs.
