Abstract: Versatile dual-mode class-AB CMOS four-quadrant
analog multiplier circuit is presented. The dual translinear loops and
current mirrors are the basic building blocks in realization scheme.
This technique provides; wide dynamic range, wide-bandwidth response
and low power consumption. The major advantages of this
approach are; its has single ended inputs; since its input is dual translinear
loop operate in class-AB mode which make this multiplier
configuration interesting for low-power applications; current multiplying,
voltage multiplying, or current and voltage multiplying can
be obtainable with balanced input. The simulation results of versatile
analog multiplier demonstrate a linearity error of 1.2 %, a -3dB bandwidth
of about 19MHz, a maximum power consumption of 0.46mW,
and temperature compensated. Operation of versatile analog multiplier
was also confirmed through an experiment using CMOS transistor
array.
