Differential Amplifier in Cadence Virtuoso | Complete Schematic, Simulation & Layout| Ex 9

Описание: In this video, we design and simulate a Differential Amplifier using Cadence Virtuoso (GPDK 180nm).
The video explains how to correctly place PMOS and NMOS transistors, avoid common mistakes, perform schematic design, symbol creation, testbench setup, transient and AC analysis, and finally generate the layout with DRC and QRC checks.

This video is useful for:
• VLSI students
• Analog IC design learners
• Cadence Virtuoso beginners
• Students preparing for lab experiments or VLSI placements
