CMOS analog sine function generator using lateral-PNP bipolar transistors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An implementation in CMOS technology of the ingenious analog sine function generator invented by Barrie Gilbert over two decades ago (Electron. Lett., vol. 13, pp. 506-508, 1977) is described in this paper. New in this circuit is the use of lateral-PNP bipolar transistors to build the core of the sine generator together with MOS transistors in the saturation region making up the rest of the circuit. Experimental results from prototypes of the circuit fabricated in 0.8 /spl mu/m CMOS technology showed that the accuracy of the produced sine is lower than that reported from implementations in bipolar and BiCMOS technologies (dos Reis Filho and Fruett, Proc. ICECS'97, 1997). The measured deviation from ideal sine over the (-/spl pi//2 to +/spl pi//2) range is less than 0.5%. Total harmonic distortion measured for a fundamental frequency at 20 kHz and the next four harmonics is approximately 1%. This circuit could be used in several applications, including the AC excitation of bridge-type sensors as a replacement for sinusoidal oscillators.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
