In this work, we proposed a voltage-to-current cell based on a Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) inverter designed by using floating gate transistors. We demonstrate its usefulness for the design of stair-type and sawtooth functions to be used in the implementation of a multiscroll chaotic oscillator. The main advantage of using floating gate transistors to design the nonlinear functions is the elimination of external reference DC sources, as is typically done in most of the nonlinear functions that generate multiscroll attractors. The key guidelines for the design of our proposed voltage-to-current cell are given to provide good performances in the design of an integrated multiscroll chaotic oscillator. HSPICE simulations are presented to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed cell to generate multiscroll attractors. Finally, simulation results before and after layout are presented to show the good agreement with respect to theoretical results. HSPICE simulations of the post-layout design are in accordance with the system behavior.
The design of a multiscroll chaotic oscillator based on the realization of a sawtooth function by using floating gate MOSFETs (FGMOS), is introduced. Basically, we propose the implementation of a FGMOS inverter to generate the nonlinear functions which are responsible of the equilibrium points of a continuous chaotic dynamical system, allowing the generation of multiple scroll attractors.Spice simulations show the behavior of the nonlinear cell, along with the generation of multiscroll chaotic attractors.
