Integrated CMOS RF amplifier

This paper reports an integrated 2.0 micron CMOS RF amplifier designed for amplification in the 420-450 MHz frequency band. Design techniques are shown for the test amplifier configuration. Problems of decreased amplifier bandwidth, gain element instability, and low Q values for the inductors were encountered. Techniques used to overcome these problems are discussed. Layouts of the various elements are described and a summary of the simulation results are included. Test circuits have been submitted to MOSIS for fabrication.

A programmable architecture for CMOS sequential circuits

This paper presents a programmable architecture for sequential pass transistor circuits. The resulting circuits are such that a state machine with N states and M output is constructed using a single layout replicated N + M times.
