This paper presents a new general purpose neuro-fuzzy controller to realize adaptive-network-based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) architecture. ANFIS which tunes the fuzzy inference system with a back propagation algorithm based on collection of input-output data makes fuzzy system to learn. To implementing this idea we propose several improved CMOS analog circuits, including Gaussian-like memb...

The circuit has been designed taking into account mismatch effects and Spectre simulations have been reported. An integrated circuit has been realized and is now under test. Key-Words: Neuro-Fuzzy, Analog, Mixed Signal, VLSI, Embedded Appli...

We present the structure of an analog integrated circuit design laboratory to instruct at both, senior undergraduate and entry graduate levels. The teaching material includes: a laboratory manual with analog circuit design theory, pre-laboratory exercises and circuit design specifications; a reference web page with step by step instructions and examples; the use of mathematical tools for automa...

This paper describes an analogue EHW (Evolvable Hardware) chip for Intermediate Frequency (IF) lters, which are widely used in cellular phones. When analogue Integrated Circuits (ICs) and LargeScale Integrated Circuits (LSIs) are manufactured, the values of the analogue circuit components, such as resistors or capacitors, often vary from the precise design speci cations. Analogue LSIs with such...

CMOS Integrated Circuit Design for Ultra-Wideband Transmitters and Receivers. (August 2009) Rui Xu, B.S. , Southeast University, China; M.S., Southeast University, China Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Cam Nguyen Ultra-wideband technology (UWB) has received tremendous attention since the FCC license release in 2002, which expedited the research and development of UWB technologies on consumer p...

The readout of detector arrays requires the monolithic or hybrid integration of a integrate circuit multiplexer with the detector array. In most LWIR and VLWIR applications, a hybrid approach is used. For example, the detector array may be built from HgCdTe and the readout integrated circuit may be silicon CMOS [1]. The two integrated circuits are mated through a bump-bonding process in which e...

Self-powered sensing refers to an energy scavenging approach where the power for sensing, computation and storage is harvested directly from the signal being sensed. Presented is a 16-transistor CMOS circuit that can be used for the self-powered sensing of strain-rates using signals produced by piezoelectric energy scavengers. By exploiting operational primitives inherent in impact-ionised hot-...

implementations utilize a CMOS inverter to obtain a sigmoid response, making the output wave form process sensitive, i.e. making it unpredictable from one integrated circuit to another [5]. predictable output independent of process parameters and thermal effects . Other strengths in this design are its speed and the fact that each weight is fully programmable with up to eight bits of resolution...
