Abstract: This paper presents the design and implementation of a low-offset, high-gain operational amplifier (op-amp). The overall circuit consists of a bandgap reference, oscillator, frequency divider, auxiliary op-amp, and main op-amp. By employing a ping-pong auto-zeroing architecture, the circuit achieves continuous operation while significantly reducing the input offset voltage of the amplifier. Furthermore, this paper proposes a novel and efficient control timing scheme that effectively reduces the settling time during ping-pong switching at a relatively low cost, further minimizing the output glitches of the amplifier. The amplifier chip was designed and fabricated in a 350 nm CMOS process. Measurement results demonstrate that under a 5 V supply voltage, the amplifier consumes 0.65 mA current, achieves a maximum input offset voltage of 3 µV, provides a gain-bandwidth product of 8 MHz, and exhibits a noise spectral density as low as 30 nV/√Hz.

引言
隨著互補(bǔ)金屬氧化物半導(dǎo)體(Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor, CMOS)工藝的不斷發(fā)展,,CMOS憑借其便于集成以及成本低等優(yōu)點,,逐漸成為了主流工藝。但是CMOS放大器受失調(diào)電壓(1~10 mV),、溫漂以及1/f噪聲的影響,,無法滿足高精度應(yīng)用的要求。通常在電路設(shè)計上解決上述問題有兩種技術(shù):斬波技術(shù)和自歸零技術(shù)[1-2],。采用斬波技術(shù)會在放大器的輸出端引入紋波,,如果放大器后面驅(qū)動模數(shù)轉(zhuǎn)換器(ADC),這種紋波在ADC采樣時會產(chǎn)生較大的誤差,,除非采樣和斬波同步發(fā)生在紋波的過零點[3],。隨著斬波技術(shù)的發(fā)展,文獻(xiàn)[4-7]分別展示了不同的方法來減小紋波,。但所有這些方法有一個共同的缺點:當(dāng)輸入被調(diào)制時,,即使放大器是無失調(diào)偏移的,它們有限的帶寬也將引起切換瞬變,,而在放大器的輸出處解調(diào)時,,切換瞬變會變成毛刺。而自歸零相比斬波而言,,由于沒有調(diào)制解調(diào)過程,,不會產(chǎn)生紋波[8]。但由于采樣作用,,自歸零是一種不適用于連續(xù)時間工作的技術(shù),。當(dāng)需要連續(xù)時間操作時,,則需要使用乒乓結(jié)構(gòu)[9],其中兩個自歸零放大器彼此并聯(lián)運行,,一個自動調(diào)零,,一個用于放大信號。此外放大器在乒乓切換過程中,,一般采用兩相非交疊時鐘控制切換時序[10],,但這樣會在放大器的輸出引入毛刺。
