Abstract :
A digital high speed VLSI fuzzifier is introduced. It is characterized by a trapezoidal membership function which is defined in terms of four programmable parameters. Simulations of the SPICE file extracted from the layout of the fuzzifier show that fuzzification is performed in less than 30 nS. Utilization of the fuzzifier in a multiplexed fashion for implementation of a compact, fuzzy inference engine is discussed
