Cover Story: A fully differential amplifier is proposed in 1.8 V-180 nm CMOS technology, accommodating both voltage (V-mode) and current (C-mode) inputs. Post-layout results show a fixed gain amplifier exhibiting a 26 dB/89 dBΩ (V/C-mode) gain and a programmable gain amplifier featuring a 6-26 dB gain, overall yielding a 26.8-46.4 dB/89.6-109.2 dBΩ (V/C-mode) programmable gain, with a 100 MHz bandwidth and power and area consumption of 360.5 µW and 0.0177 mm2, respectively. The proposed design introduces a novel fully differential open-loop structure based on a transconductance–transimpedance topology for high-performance applications with a broad programmable bandwidth, considering the specifications for its use in an analog Lock-in-Based Frequency Response Analyser Impedance Spectroscopy device.
