Abstract
In this paper, the design of a power-law function generator and AM modulator/demodulator using configurable analog blocks (CABs) for filed programmable analog arrays (FPAAs) is presented. To maintain high frequency operation, the programmability and configurability of the CABs are achieved by digitally modifying the CABs biasing conditions. Using at most four CABs it is possible to design a current-mode power-law function generator and AM modulator/demodulator. SPICE simulation results are included.
