Problems solved by technology

[0003] For the traditional single-stage OTA linear operation transconductance circuit (see figure 1 ), under the limitation of low power supply voltage, it is difficult to make full use of the high-impedance output characteristics of the Cascode structure to achieve high gain, and it is difficult to meet the high-speed response requirements under dynamic current regulation and driving by reducing the output current to increase impedance and gain; on the contrary, when After the N value is fixed, by increasing the quiescent current I B Increase the bandwidth to obtain high-speed response driven by a large slew rate, which not only causes an increase in power consumption, but also leads to a decrease in gain

Therefore, for the traditional OTA structure, only the quiescent current I B , Input differential pair transistor transconductance factor, differential pair load current mirror W / L proportional factor N value to optimize the selection of three parameters to balance the requirements of gain, bandwidth, slew rate and power consumption, but at the same time meet the needs of all parties is extremely difficult
