Abstract :
The principle of hybrid translinear (HTL) loop was presented, which made the principle of translinear (TL) loop be more complete. By proposing a method of decomposing an MOS transistor operated in triode region into two MOS transistors operated in saturation region, the principle of TL loop was simplified and the graphical equivalent topology was extended. In addition, the topological method to identify TL loops involved in translinear cell was successfully extended to all types of TL loops especially to HTL loop
