Abstract:
In this work, a new trigonometric function generator is introduced. It is designed and simulated based on Bhaskara’s approximation for sine. The circuit is designed using analog current-mode technique thus all nodes have low impedance and the processed signal is current. The analyses are given for simple simulation, prey-layout and post-layout simulation both with Monte Carlo analysis. The results of the important parameters of proposed circuits are given that prove such excellent features as follow. The simple simulation results for sine function generator circuit show low power (<300µW), low supply voltage (1.8V), small error (<0.4%), wide band-width (BW=46MHz) and low harmonic distortion (THD<0.7%). These results in post-layout plus Monte Carlo simulation prove low sensitivity(despite mismatch of %3 and post layout effects) as; consumed power <330µW, low supply voltage (1.8V), small error <1.2 % , wide band-width (32MHz) and low harmonic distortion (THD<0.92%). The design is performed with MOSFETs in saturation region and contrary to difficulties of other circuits based on approximation series this circuit due to its simplicity and unique accuracy seems to be the best candidate in realizing of sine and cosine functions. These superiorities are mainly due to using both current mode processing and Bhaskara’s approximation. Some other important benefits of the proposed design are the Novel reconfigurable structure (suitable for FPAA) and compatibility with modern fabrication technology (CMOS).Most favorably the same circuit is simply extended to a novel block that excellently realizes cosine function. Its simulation results with Monte Carlo are ; very low consumed power (<150µW), low supply voltage (1.8V), small error (<0.5%), wide BW of 52MHz) and low harmonic distortion (THD<0.7%).
Furthermore, some analog computational blocks had been needed that are obtained either by improving some existing structures or innovated ones.
