dc.description.abstract | © The Electrochemical Society.This paper presents a study by SPICE simulations and experimental data of a capacitor-less low-dropout (CL-LDO) voltage regulator (VR) by using a novel backend technique to improve its electrical performance. This study regards the use of an octagonal layout style in the pass device MOSFET of a CL-LDO VR to mainly boost its open-loop voltage gain and reduce output impedance. The results show that this innovative layout approach used in the CL-LDO voltage regulator can increase its power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) in approximately 2 dB (60 Hz), without degrading its quiescent current (Iq) (improvement of 2% better), and without wasting additional die area, in comparison to the one that its pass MOSFETs was implemented by using standard rectangular layout style. The 130 nm Bipolar Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (BiCMOS) manufacturing process from GlobalFoundries was used to implement both CL-LDO VRs, via MOSIS Educational Program. The die areas of each CL-LDO VRs are the same and equal to 0.00994mm2. | |
