Abstract

Pulse frequency modulation (PFM) provides robust long-distance communication and event-driven access to the communication channel. A PFM demodulator small and simple enough to equip every cell of a large analog neural network is analyzed. The circuit can demodulate PFM signals with pulse rates as low as 1 kHz using the switched-capacitor technique. Measurement results from integrated demodulators are presented.
