ABSTRACT:
A 1.5V full-swing bootstrapped CMOS large capacitive-load driver circuit using two bootstrap capacitors to enhance the switching speed for low-voltage deep-submicron CMOS VLSI. For a supply voltage of 1.5V, the full-swing bootstrapped CMOS driver circuit shows a 2.2 times improvement in switching speed in driving a capacitive load of 10 pF as compared to the conventional CMOS driver circuit. Even for a supply voltage of 1V, this full-swing bootstrapped CMOS large capacitive-load driver circuit is still advantageous.
