Analysis of noise in higher-order translinear filters
نویسندگان
چکیده
Noise analysis of higher-order translinear filters cannot be established through straight-forward extension of analysis techniques for first-order TL filters, due to the presence noise sources that interact with multiple filter states simultaneously, in a nonlinear and non-stationary way. Such noise sources, that are not encountered in in first-order TL filters, require a new analysis technique. This paper presents a noise analysis technique for higher-order TL filters that that takes this specific ‘higher-order’ noise into account. An example analysis for a second-order TL low-pass filter is given.

Nonlinear Analysis of Noise in Static and Dynamic Translinear Circuits
For translinear filters, or log-domain filters, calculation of the maximal signal-to-noise-ratio, an important filter specification, is not trivial, due to the inherent companding behavior and the nonstationary nature of the transistor noise sources. To address this issue, a nonlinear noise analysis method is proposed. Based on large-signal calculations, expressions for the first-order noise an...
متن کاملNoise Considerations for Translinear Filters
Translinear filters exhibit unconventional noise characteristics, due to the internal nonlinear behavior. In this paper, the maximal signal-to-noise-ratio and the dynamic range properties of translinear filters are discussed, and the relation between these two specifications and the inherent instantaneous companding is described.

A general theory for companding log domain filters is proposed which combines not only exponential mappings, but also a new translational mapping approach which guarantees suitable operating conditions in any log domain filter. The filter equations resulting from the use of the theory ultimately contain translinear terms which are known to be realizable using translinear techniques. A discussio...
