Abstract: Multiplier-divider circuits is using in digital signal processing base on neural networks and communications (amplifiers with variable gain, modulators, detectors and,…).In this paper, the design of a simple analog current mode multiplier/divider circuit using only two current followertrans conductance amplifiers (CFTAs) is presented. With the selection of the applied input currents, the proposed circuit can perform four-quadrant current multiplication, division and current controlled current amplification, all from the same circuit configuration. The circuit is also insensitive to ambient temperature variations. Additionally, the CFTA non-ideality effects and the non-ideal gain and parasitic component effects onthe proposed circuit are studied. The performances of therealized circuit are examined by PSPICE simulations.
