This study introduces a collaborative and open dataset designed to classify operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) in switched-capacitor applications. The dataset comprises a diverse collection of OTA designs sourced from the literature, facilitating benchmarking, analysis and innovation in analog and mixed-signal integrated circuit design. Various evaluation methodologies, implemented through a companion Python notebook script, are discussed to assess OTA performances across different operating conditions and specifications. Several Figures of Merit (FoMs) are utilized as performance metrics to achieve significant performance classification. This study also uncovers intriguing behaviors and correlations among FoMs, providing valuable insights into OTA design considerations. By making the dataset openly available on platforms like GitHub, this work encourages collaboration and knowledge sharing within the integrated circuit design community, thereby enhancing transparency, reproducibility and innovation in OTA design research.

Abstract
This study introduces a collaborative and open dataset designed to classify operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) in switched-capacitor applications. The dataset comprises a diverse collection of OTA designs sourced from the literature, facilitating benchmarking, analysis and innovation in analog and mixed-signal integrated circuit design. Various evaluation methodologies, implemented through a companion Python notebook script, are discussed to assess OTA performances across different operating conditions and specifications. Several Figures of Merit (FoMs) are utilized as performance metrics to achieve significant performance classification. This study also uncovers intriguing behaviors and correlations among FoMs, providing valuable insights into OTA design considerations. By making the dataset openly available on platforms like GitHub, this work encourages collaboration and knowledge sharing within the integrated circuit design community, thereby enhancing transparency, reproducibility and innovation in OTA design research.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
