Abstract
TransLinear (TL) circuits are based on the exponential law describing the bipolar transistor. Based on the square law model for the strong inversion MOS transistor, a different type of TL circuits can be realised [67-70]. The formal definition of the general principle behind these ‘Voltage-TransLinear’1 (VTL) circuits was published by Seevinck and Wiegerink in [67], see Section 2.3.

References
The term ‘Voltage-Translinear’ proposed in [63,64] is used throughout this book as it clearly distinguishes between TL principles based on the exponential law and VTL principles based on the square law, as opposed to the term ‘MOS Translinear’ proposed in [67].
