Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electronic circuit includes: a weighting circuit configured to generate a first current by weighting and combining a first input signal and a second input signal in accordance with a modifiable coefficient and to generate a second current by weighting and combining a first inverted signal and a second inverted signal in accordance with the coefficient, the first inverted signal being an inverted signal of the first input signal, the second inverted signal being an inverted signal of the second input signal; and a decision circuit configured to decide on an output signal by comparing the first current with the second current.
