Abstract
A Low power CMOS operational amplifier (Op-
Amp) which operates at 1.8V power supply. The unique behavior
of the MOS transistors in saturation region not only allows a
designer to work at a low voltage, but also at a high frequency.
Designing of two-stage op-amps is a multi-dimensional
optimization problem where optimization of one or more
parameters may easily result into degradation of others. The Op-
Amp is designed to exhibit a unity gain frequency of 20MHz and
exhibits a gain of 68.24dB. The ability adopted, to use smaller
compensation capacitor (CC), which improves the slew rate and
also, benefits for the area of compensation circuit. In order to
verify the viability two-stage op-amp at SCNO 180 nm CMOS
technology. Power consumption is reducing.
