Dynamic translinear circuits-an overview

A promising new approach to meet the challenges that the area of analogue integrated circuits is facing, in the Light of ever lower supply voltages, low power consumption and high-frequency operation, is formed by the class of dynamic translinear circuits. This paper aims to give an overview of this young, yet rapidly developing, circuit paradigm. Emphasis is placed on methods for analysis and synthesis and on state-of-the-art results obtained for both linear and non-linear applications.
