Summary:In this paper, a nonconventional structure for a
“fuzzy” controller is proposed. It does not require signal
division, and it produces control surfaces similar to classical fuzzy
controllers. The structure combines fuzzification, MIN operators,
normalization, and weighted sum blocks. The fuzzy architecture is
implemented as a VLSI chip using 2-μm n-well technology. A new
fuzzification circuit, which requires only one differential pair per
membership function is proposed. Eight equally spaced membership
functions are used in the VLSI implementation. Simple voltage MIN
circuits are used for rule selection. A modified Takagi-Sugeno approach
with normalization and weighted sum is used in the defuzzification
circuit. Weights in the defuzzifier are digitally programmable with
6-bits resolution
