摘要
A CMOS circuit is proposed which takes multiple analog input currents and extracts minimum input current at the output. It is very fast and requires no subtraction from the constant current source. It exhibits O(N) complexity and uses only 4 x N MOS transistors where N is the number of system inputs. This circuit consumes very little power and very small area. The substrate bias affects the threshold voltage of transistors and improves performance of the structure.
