This paper presents mixed-signal current-mode CMOS circuits to implement programmable fuzzy controllers that perform the singleton or zero-order Sugeno's method. Design equations to characterize these circuits are provided to explain the precision and speed that they offer. This analysis is illustrated with the experimental results of prototypes integrated in standard CMOS technologies. These tests show that an equivalent precision of 6 b is achieved. The connection of these blocks according to a proposed architecture allows fuzzy chips with low silicon area whose inference speed is in the range of 2 Mega FLIPS (fuzzy logic inferences per second),.
