Abstract

This paper introduces a software support tool for an advanced electronics laboratory session on circuit synthesis. The application provides the students with a handy tool for structural synthesis of translinear circuits. For a given arbitrary function the program yields a set of realizations, with BJT or MOSFET, which are automatically compared by SPICE simulation, considering the criteria: stability, bandwidth and magnitude of circuit - induced errors. The software tool was developed in C++ code using Visual C++ 2005 programming environment and is specifically designed for students' use, providing a friendly, intuitive interface.
