MOSFET Based Active Components as Alternative to Passive Counterparts

This paper illustrates a compendium analysis of MOS device as replacement of passive elements like resistor, inductor and capacitor. With cadence-based simulations we have demonstrated MOS resistor/active resistor, MOS capacitor/active capacitor, MOS inductor/ active inductor. The simulation results have also indicated that these MOS based active elements have the tuning capabilities. Finally, in the literature review section, the outcomes of several applications have been discussed based on the MOS based active elements.
