Abstract
A novel circuit configuration for generating the sine function in MOS integrated circuit technology is proposed. It is based on the exponentiallaw of MOS transistors operating in the subthreshold region. An experimental MOS sine generator and PSPICE simulations show that the MOS sine function generator achieves a total harmonic distortion of 0·71% over an angular range of ±360°. Typical power consumption is less than 1 μW and the bandwidth is greater than 100 kHz.
