This paper presents a novel low power ramp generator circuit with a negative feedback loop for compensation of the variations in process, voltage, and temperature (PVT). While using an opamp for PVT compensation has been essential in the previous ramp generator structures, the proposed ramp generator is opamp-less. Derived equations of the proposed ramp generator circuit show that PVT compensation structure works effectively. In addition, the circuit design and simulations were done in TSMC 0.18[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m CMOS technology. Corner analysis shows that integral non-linearity (INL) of the ramp signal is about 3.7[Formula: see text]mV, for a wide temperature range, while the power dissipation of the circuit is about 1.16[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]W. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s0218126621500328","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,5,28]],"date-time":"2020-05-28T10:20:42Z","timestamp":1590661242000},"page":"2150032","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["An Opamp-Less PVT Compensation Structure for Ramp Generator Circuit"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"30","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0758-1154","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohsen","family":"Padash","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Microelectronics Research Laboratory, University of Zanjan, Zanjan, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mostafa","family":"Yargholi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Zanjan, Zanjan, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Maryam Shojaei","family":"Baghini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical Engineering, IIT-Bombay, Powai, Mumbai, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB001","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1049\/el.2014.0664"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB002","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/JSSC.2010.2050945"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB003","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/PRIME.2013.6603108"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB004","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mejo.2017.01.005"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB005","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ICECS.2012.6463672"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB006","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1142\/S0218126619500282"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB007","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ISOCC.2017.8368786"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB008","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/JSEN.2019.2957043"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB009","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10470-019-01534-7"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB010","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12209-008-0032-8"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB011","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TNS.2012.2212722"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB012","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TENCON.2019.8929480"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB013","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TBCAS.2019.2936373"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB014","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ISCIT.2019.8905203"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB015","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10470-018-1148-y"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB016","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ICECCT.2017.8117957"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB017","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ICCCNT.2018.8493494"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB018","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ICRAECT.2017.17"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB019","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ICECCT.2017.8117953"},{"key":"S0218126621500328BIB020","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TVLSI.2018.2876976"}],"container-title":["Journal of Circuits, Systems and Computers"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1142\/S0218126621500328","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,3,9]],"date-time":"2021-03-09T10:35:57Z","timestamp":1615286157000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.worldscientific.com\/doi\/abs\/10.1142\/S0218126621500328"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,8]]},"references-count":20,"journal-issue":{"issue":"02","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021,2]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1142\/S0218126621500328"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1142\/s0218126621500328","relation":{},"ISSN":["0218-1266","1793-6454"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0218-1266"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1793-6454"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,8]]}}}
