Abstract :
The application of operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) in analog emulation of power systems in the form of a power system on a chip (PSoC) is explored. Sub-circuits in the PSoC have been developed with OTAs, which make a reconfigurable analog emulator realizable. In addition, simulation results using Spice highlight important characteristics of the OTAs in the sub-circuits.
