The performance of this circuit is compared with the state-of-the-art of the Gaussian noise generators. The proposed circuit is optimized for a standard 0.35 μm CMOS technology, using an equation-based design methodology based on genetic algorithms. Measurement results demonstrate that the circuit is capable of producing a high noise amplitude within a large bandwidth while using a relatively low power dissipation. Targeted applications for this circuit are: uniform noise generator circuits and the built-in self-calibration and on-chip built-in self-testing of video-rate analogue-to-digital converters.", pages = "308-316(9)", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/asp/jolpe/2006/00000002/00000002/art00017" doi = "doi:10.1166/jolpe.2006.064" }
