Abstract
In this paper, novel current-mode analog multiplier/divider circuits based on a pair of voltage-translinear loops are presented, featuring simplicity, precision and wide dynamic range. They are suitable for standard CMOS fabr ication and can be successfully employed in a wide range of analog signal p rocessing applications. Two versions, based on stacked and up-down voltage- translinear loops, respectively, are described. Experimental results are pr ovided in order to verify their correct operation.
