A Practical Implementation of A Two Quadrant Transconductance Analogue Multiplier

One of the circuits that I've spent an inordinate amount of time investigating this year is the Analogue Multiplier. An analogue multiplier is a circuit block which takes two analogue signals and produces an output which is proportional to their product. Analogue multipliers can be integrated as part of a larger circuit blocks to perform … Continue reading A Practical Implementation of A Two Quadrant Transconductance Analogue Multiplier
