Abstract
Switched current circuits are used here to design real degree-one discrete time lattices for use in modeling the inner ear portion of ear-type networks. This lattice is characterized as an electrical two port system and is, therefore, described by a transfer scattering matrix relating input and output signals. This matrix is degree-one and requires only one delay function, which we realize with a switched current circuit containing only one delay. This circuit uses a new sampling switch that substantially reduces the distortion occurring due to the clock feed through in conventional MOS based switches. Spice simulation results are included to support the theory.
