Resumen:
In this paper we present an integrated circuit implementing piecewise-linear (PWL) functions with three inputs, where each input can be either analog or digital. The PWL function to be implemented can be chosen by properly storing a set of coefficients in a 4 kB external memory. Experimental results are shown that demonstrate the circuit working up to 50 MHz with a maximum power consumption of 3.7 mW. Measurements corresponding to both static and time-varying inputs are provided and discussed.
