Hi, all. I'm designing a telescopic amplifier with a switched-capacitor CMFB circuit and just found a strange phenomenon in Spectre PAC analysis.
I made my amp to have a gain of 50, but the PAC results showed me only gain of 4. When I run normal AC simulation by connecting 10Gohm resistors to SC CMFB's capacitors in parallel, I was able to verify that my circuit's gain is 50.
PSS waveforms show similar voltage values to DC analysis. So, I'm really confused which AC analysis is a correct one (PAC or normal AC)?
+) It seems that the below post discusses similar problems as me. But, there's no satisfying solution...
