Modeling Settling Time of OTA
Jan 03rd, 2006, 2:33am
 
Hi Forum,
             Slewrate can be modeled by (Imax/Cc) maximum current limitation and Compensation Capacitance of OTA. But I am wondering how to model settling time which includes Slew Rate limitaion (Non-Linear portion - initial part of settling); Phase Margin at UGF, Parasitic poles and pole-zero doublet if any (Quasi Linear portion- later part of setlling) .......I want to see effect of these in Transient Simulation. Any idea or suggestion is most welcome.

Thanks,
-Packiaraj.V.

Only time for a quick answer...

Have you looked at the Ideal/Non-Ideal opamp model in the Cadence "modelwriter" tool. This might be a good place to get some hints from, in the code it produces?

Regards,

Andrew.
