This is an ultra low-voltage LC (Colpitts) oscillator circuit using EPAD MOSFETs with active load and output buffer. This circuit is similar to a standard LC oscillator circuit used to power 5V circuits. However, at low operating voltages, the values of the resistors and the impedance of the inverter MOSFET are selected to optimize oscillation stability and at the same time minimize power consumption. An active load device using, for example, an ALD114804 replaces a passive load at the inverter.

This circuit shows a basic diode"connected MOSFET connection driven by a constant current source. The drain terminal is shorted to the gate terminal. When connected in this manner, this circuit produces an output voltage VO. The drain current Ids that flows through the MOSFET increases exponentially with increases of VO, with Ids vs. VO characteristics similar to that of a forward biased diode. Hence the term œdiode-connected configuration. This type of circuit is very useful to clamp or

This circuit is a classic voltage comparator function, with a comparator reference voltage input VREF and an input voltage level VIN. VIN is compared to VREF and the output goes low whenever VIN exceeds VREF, turning on the load. The output of the comparator can easily drive multiple loads, which can include, in this example, two separate relays. The loading can easily be replace with a combination of other types of loads such as, for example, an inductor plus a capacitor and a resistor in addit

This circuit is a micropower buffered variable rail-to-rail voltage source using a variation to the basic connection of a unity gain buffer amplifier. The unity gain amplifier is used primarily to isolate the input from the output. By using a micropower rail-to-rail operational amplifier (see list below), the input voltage VIN can be at any voltage between the V+ and V- supply rails. VOUT can be from within a few millivolts to a few tenths of millivolts from the supply rails. The actual output v

This is a version of a discrete differential amplifier consisting of an N channel matched-pair MOSFET Array and a P channel matched-pair MOSFET Array. Whenever a circuit required for an application cannot be met by an existing component available as an IC function such as an operational amplifier or a voltage comparator, a discrete circuit version would have to be designed and built. This differential amplifier is biased by a separate external N-channel current source (see current source cs-seri
