Abstract
The paper reports on a reliable design methodology for linearity of analog/RF circuits based on EKV model and its main parameter, the inversion coefficient (IC). In this procedure, the linearity value is studied in all regions from WI to SI. Two important linearity indices, AldB and AIP3, are investigated for single-stage and two stage differential amplifiers and finally the optimum value of inversion coefficient is calculated for biasing of circuit devices.
