Abstract

In
this work, a systematic of the automation in the result of the re-obtained
small signal parameters based on SPICE and CADENCE-SPECTRE is presented for
MOS-Only circuits. Accuracy of the re-obtained parameters was improved by
re-formulating in the basis of SPICE and CADENCE-SPECTRE. Moreover, piece-wise
polynomial regressive models are presented for gm ,gds  and Ids . Also, performance
of the models is compared with conventional expressions. Success of the given
MOS-Only design automation based on re-obtained small signal parameters is
verified with an exemplary new agile filter.  

Keywords
