Abstract
We describe a new class of translinear circuits that accurately embody product-of-power-law relationships in the current signal domain. We call such circuits multiple-input translinear element (MITE) networks. A MITE is a circuit element, which we defined recently that produces an output current that is exponential in a weighted sum of its input voltages. We describe intuitively the basic operation of MITE networks and provide a systematic matrix technique for analyzing the nonlinear relationships implemented by any given circuit. We also show experimental data from three MITE networks that were fabricated in a 1.2-/spl mu/m double-poly CMOS process.
