Large networks composed of multiple input translinear elements (MITEs) have been typically limited by the mismatches between individual MITEs. This paper presents the methodology that allows for such systems to be feasible through the application of floating-gate programming techniques. We introduce designs for a programmable MITE, and demonstrate the ability to systematically reduce offsets through accurate programming of example circuits.

In this paper a second order log-domain bandpass filter using multiple input translinear elements (MITEs) operating at a 3V supply. We enhance the capabilities of the filter by utilizing programmable MITE structures as well as programmable current sources, which are covered in this paper. The synthesized bandpass filter is implemented and fabricated using these programmable translinear devices (MITEs). Experimental results are shown from circuit fabricated on a 0.5μm nwell CMOS process available through MOSIS.
