The proposed scheme has the potential for applications in deep submicrometer technology, as the operation of the circuit does not exclusively rely on the square-law or the linear-law of transistors. The scheme is compact and suitable for applications as VLSI cell. The rail-to- rail op-amp has been implemented in DPDM 0. 6 μm mixedsignal process. The simulations show that in the entire range of input common mode voltage, the variations in transconductance, SR and gain are 1%, 2. 3%, 1.36 dB, respectively. Based on this, the layout and tape-out are carded out. The area of layout is 0. 072 mm^2. The test results are basically consistent with the circuit simulation.展开更多

The experimental results indicate that the response characteristics could be affected by the switching total doses, irradiation temperatures,and dose rates individually or together. Accelerated evaluation on the ELDRS can be realized by adopting a proper dose-rate switching method. Meanwhile, the irradiation time can also be reduced. Finally, the mechanisms of the difference between various radiation responses are analyzed.展开更多
