Abstract

FPTA-2 with feedback structure is evolved to achieve an effective amplifier. Results in both time and frequency domain show it’s more effectively than using open-loop circuit. A new kind of fitness function based on square error threshold is put forward. Special points of sine wave can evolve better by using such evaluation function. A new structure of multi-cell circuits is designed and experiments show such new structure can make evolution easier.
