CMOS Current-Mode Companding Divider

A CMOS current-mode companding divider is presented. Currents of both dividend and divisor are compressed into log-domain. Then the logarithm current of divisor is subtracted from the logarithm current of dividend. After expanding the subtraction result, the division function could be achieved. The simulation results indicate that the proposed divider has with good performance at only 1.8V supply voltage.
