The proposed design technique combines a linear cross-coupled quad input stage with an enhanced folded-cascode circuit to increase the output resistance of the amplifier. SPICE simulations show that DC-gain enhancement can be obtained without significant bandwidth limitation. The two-input OTA developed is used in high-frequency tuneable filter design based on IFLF and LC ladder simulation structures. Simulated results of parameters and characteristics of the OTA and filters in a standard 1.2 ÎŒm CMOS process (MOSIS) are presented. A tuning circuit is also discussed.Peer reviewe
Generalized Hantzsche-Wendt Flat Manifolds
We study the family of closed Riemannian n-manifolds with holonomy group
isomorphic to , which we call generalized Hantzsche-Wendt manifolds.
We prove results on their structures, compute some invariants, and find
relations between them, illustrated in graph connecting the family.Comment: 16 pages, 1 figure. Revista Matematica Iberoamericana. Vol. 21, no. 3
