Abstract

The analysis and synthesis methods discussed in the previous chapters are based on the exact exponential behaviour of the circuit elements. Nonetheless, many second-order effects influence the accuracy of a TransLinear (TL) circuit and in general result in distortion. Fortunately, many techniques have been developed in the past to overcome these problems. For example, this is demonstrated by the TL multiplier reported in [49], which provides a total harmonic distortion level of-95 dB.
