CONCLUSION Whenever dealing with interconnected large-scale systems the size of the system becomes an issue. Model reduction techniques are used to alleviate these difficulties. Most of the techniques are applied to the linearized model of the composite system model. ’ In this paper, it is shown that in the component connection model framework the composite system is aggregable if and only if at least one of its components is aggregable. Because of the relatively small size of the individual components, it is easier to aggregate the component model rather than the composite system model. The important consequence of this result is that when dealing with interconnected large scale systems in the component connection model framework one does not need to aggregate the large-scale composite system but rather can consider the aggrega- tion of each, relatively smaller scale component, independently. 111 I21 [31 [41 PI I61 PI REFERENCES H.

Chaos in a Switched-Capacitor Circuit ANGEL B. RODRIGUEZ-VAZQUEZ, JOSE L. HUERTAS, AND LEON 0. CHUA Abstract -We report chaotic phenomena observed from a simple nonlin- ear switched-capacitor circuit. The experimentally measured bifurcation tree diagram reveals a period-doubling route to chaos. This circuit is described by a first-order discrete equation which can be transformed into the logistic map whose chaotic dynamics is well known. Several nonlinear circuits which exhibit various types of chaotic phenomena have been reported recently [l]--[5]. Our objective in this letter is to report an experimental result showing the ubiquitous chaotic phenomena can also occur in a switched- capacitor circuit.

A nonlinear switched-capacitor circuit and its associated timing di- agram. due to the onset of chaos should be fully analyzed. This chaotic circuit is also of circuit-theoretic interest because its dynamic equation is equivalent to the well-known logistic map [6] whose chaotic dynamics have been extensively studied and is now well understood. Since the logistic map is the simplest chaotic poly- nomial discrete map, the chaotic circuit to be described below is the simplest chaotic circuit described by a first-order discrete map. Consider the switched-capacitor circuit in Fig. l(a): it is made of a battery I’,, a linear capacitor C,, a nonlinear switched-capa- citor component [7], [8], and three analog switches. The state (on or off) of the switches is controlled by a standard two-phase clock defined by the timing diagram shown in Fig. l(b). The switches labeled S’ (resp., So) turn on in synchronization with the rising edge of the clock signal @’ (resp., +‘). The nonlinear switched-capacitor component-henceforth called an FESC (forward. Euler switched capacitor) resistor-is defined by Q, -Q,-, = kV,2_, A AQ, (1) where AQ, is the net charge flowing into the FESC resistor during the nth clock period, V,-, is the voltage sampled across the FESC resistor during the (n - 1)th period, and K is an arbitrary positive constant. We have built the circuit in Fig. l(a) with C, =l nF and k = 0.5 nF/V using off-the-shelf components and observed the steady-state voltage waveform samples V for different values of the battery voltage v,. Contrary to our intuitive expectation for a single-valued relationship between V and V,, we found the rela- tionship to be multiple-valued over some ranges of the “parame- ter” y , and undefined i.e., chaotic, for other ranges. This observation is summarized by the bifurcation tree measured experimentally from this circuit. The familiar cascades preceding the chaotic region implies a period-doubling route to chaos [6]. To derive a recursive relationship for V,, we note that the net charge AQ, + i flowing into the FESC resistor during the (n + 1)th clock period must be equal to the net charge flowing out of the linear capacitor C, (charge conservation principle), and hence: V n+l = v, - g v,‘. (4 s We can transform (2) into several more familiar equivalent forms by defining X n+l = uV,+~ + b. If we choose a = l/y and b = 0, we would obtain (3) X n+I =l- xx, Fig. 2.

Both equations, (3) and (5) have been intensively studied [6] and their global qualitative behaviors are now well classified and understood. Consequently, Fig. l(a) represents the first real physical circuit whose chaotic dynamics can be compIetely analyzed. For readers interested in repeating our experiments, the FESC resistor in Fig. l(a) can be realized by the circuit shown in Fig. 3.

SWAMY Abstract --It is shown that the floating nodes present in active RC networks can he eliminated by nodal voltage simulation, leading to new active RC networks. The new active RC networks thus generated can be easily used to realize stray-insensitive SC networks. Fqivalence of certain active RC topologies, resulting from application of this method, is also demonstrated. I. INTRODUCTION The theory and design techniques of active RC filters are considerably mature at present. Integrated circuit implementation necessitated circuits using grounded capacitors, to eliminate the effect of bottom-plate parasitic capacitances [l]. With the advent of switched-capacitor technique, it has become necessary to eliminate the effect of parasitic capacitances altogether, since predistortion as well as trimming are unattractive [2]. It is natu- ral, therefore, to attempt to derive stray-insensitive SC topologies from active RC filters using grounded capacitors. Three tech- niques viz., parasitic compensation [3], [4], nodal voltage simula- tion [5], [6], and stray-capacitance eliminating transformations [7] have been reported in the literature. In this letter, we examine the second approach in detail. It may be noted that this approach has been used in deriving bilinear SC ladder filters from doubly terminated LC filters [8]. Other variations such as nodal transfer function simulation [9], [lo] are also available in the literature. II. NODALVOLTAGESIMULATION METHOD We study the nodal voltage simulation technique with refer- ence to specific active RC networks, in what follows, in order to demonstrate its utility. A. Application to Multiple Feedback Type Single -Amplifier Low - Pass Filters Consider the multiple-feedback active RC low-pass filter of Fig. l(a).

R,, C, and OA A, to realize V, from V,, we obtain the network of Fig. l(b), which interestingly, is the well-known Tow-Thomas biquad [ll]. The availability of band-pass output at node x and low-pass output at V0 in the circuit of Fig. l(a) is transferred to the network in Fig. l(b). Note that, both these circuits are based on inductance simulation [12], [13]. Further, we observe that the circuit of Fig. l(a) is having damping due to resistors R,, R,, and R,. This damping can be reduced by multiplying the effect of R, and R, through a negative resistance to ground at node x [14]. The resulting active RC filter is shown in Fig. 2(a). Proceed- ing in the same manner as in the case of Fig. l(a), we obtain the equivalent RC active filter of Fig. 2(b). The transfer function realized is given by Kl - l/R, -= K (4 s2ClC2 R, -t SC, R, Thus both low-pass and band-pass transfer functions are still available, while large Q’s can be obtained through the use of nearly equal R, and R, values. The Q-sensitivities are thus large: and $--=1-F. 5 Note that Fischer and Moschytz [15] used such a modification for Fleischer-Laker’s biquad [16] for reducing the capacitance spread. In applications where equal capacitor values are preferred in the circuit of Fig. l(a), positive feedback can be applied [17]. This leads to the modification of the Tow-Thomas biquad, as shown in Fig. 3(a).
