Abstract
Content

Digitally programmable analog membership-function circuits have been invented for use in fuzzy-logic systems. Heretofore, fuzzy membership functions have been implemented, variously, by use of purely analog or purely digital circuits. Purely digital circuits afford flexibility at the cost of less speed and greater circuit area. Purely analog circuits offer greater speed and occupy less area but tend to be limited in flexibility and programmability. The present invention takes advantage of both the programmability of digital circuitry and the speed and compactness of analog circuitry. The analog aspect of the invention creates the potential for high-speed parallel processing with relatively low power consumption.
