In this paper, design and analysis of a novel current-mode defuzzification circuit is presented. The proposed defuzzification circuit is based on current-mode four-quadrant multipliers that have been constructed with simple current squarer and current differencing buffered amplifier (CDBA). This circuit has capable of high linearity, simple structure, and wide input current range. The defuzzifi...

A new design concept for a common-mode signal suppression circuit for a balanced-type filter has been investigated. The degradation mechanism of the balance characteristics was studied. The degradation is caused by the common-mode signals combined with the differentialmode signals in the balanced terminals. The concept employed is the reduction of the common-mode signal using a common-mode sign...

Multi-threshold CMOS (MTCMOS) is the most widely used circuit technique for suppressing subthreshold leakage currents in idle circuits. When a conventional MTCMOS circuit transitions from SLEEP mode to ACTIVE mode, voltages of power and ground distribution networks are disturbed. Mode transition noise phenomenon in MTCMOS circuits is examined in this chapter. An MTCMOS circuit technique with th...

This paper presents the design and a new low-cost process for fabrication of a second-order micromechanical filter using UV-LIGA technology. The micromechanical filter consists of two identical bulk-mode ring resonators, mechanically coupled by a flexural-mode beam. A new lumped modeling approach is presented for the bulk-mode ring resonators and filter. The validity of the analytical derivatio...
