Original Abstract

This study explores the design of fractional-order capacitors (FOCs) implemented using native n-channel MOS devices in TSMC 65 nm technology. Configurations consisting of four and five interconnected MOS segments are investigated, both considered in two variants, so-called shunted and non-shunted gates. A previously designed genetic algorithm-based program is applied to identify the best structures that approximate constant-phase admittance responses providing input admittance phase within a range of 5 to 85 degrees. The search for suitable solutions is conducted across four distinct frequency bands, enabling a detailed evaluation of the influence of both the topology type and frequency range for each phase value. The results provide insight into the capabilities and limitations of MOS-based Fractional-Order Element (FOE) approximants, offering guidance for their use in analog signal processing applications where fractional-order behavior is desired.
