Abstract

The simulation of mixed switched-capacitor/digital (SC/D) networks containing capacitors, independent and linear-dependent voltage sources, switches controlled either by periodic or nonperiodic Boolean signals, latched comparators, and logic gates is considered. A unified linear switched-capacitor network (SCN) and mixed SC/D network simulator, SWITCAP2, and its applications to several widely used and novel nonlinear SCNs are discussed. The switches may be controlled by periodic waveforms and by nonperiodic waveforms from the outputs of comparators and logic gates. The signal-dependent modification of network topology through the comparators, logic gates, and signal-driven switches makes the modeling of various nonlinear switched-capacitor circuits possible. Simulation results for a pulse-code modulation (PCM) voice encoder, a sigma-delta modulator, a neural network, and a phase-locked loop (PLL) are presented to demonstrate the flexibility of the approach.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
