Abstract :
This paper reports a synthesis methodology for linear analog circuits. A generalized Operational Transconductance Amplifier (OTA) network has been synthesized that can be easily programmed to realize different linear analog circuits. OTA is a voltage to current (V-I) converter with differential input. This property has been exploited in this synthesis procedure. Efficient analog circuits synthesized with this methodology are reported along with the simulation results.
