Abstract :
This paper describes a low voltage/low power MOS linear transconductor which can be configured to realize a square-law function circuit and a four quadrant analogue multiplier. The compact analogue computation cells described are particularly suited to parallel processing systems. The circuits were fabricated using a 0.8 μm CMOS process and operate from a 2 V power supply.
