Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for configuring an electrical circuit comprising several functional blocks having characteristic quantities of the same type and the values whereof are mutually proportional, the functional blocks being built by means of at least one set of electrical elements of a similar type and means for connecting said electrical elements to one another and/or to the rest of the electrical circuit according to different connection configurations, comprising the steps consisting of: measuring a value of a parameter of the electrical circuit for each of a set of connection configurations tested, selection, from among the coupling configurations tested, of one configuration for which the value of the measured parameter corresponds to the case where the mismatch between the values of the characteristic quantities of at least one pair of functional blocks is the smallest, and positioning the connecting means according to the configuration selected.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for configuring an electrical circuit comprising several functional blocks each having an output characteristic, the electrical circuit having a performance parameter which is dependent on the output characteristics of the functional blocks being mutually proportional in value, the method comprising: providing a set of electrical elements each having the same theoretical nominal value but different true values; providing a plurality of conne…
