Abstract(in English) This paper presents the design and evaluation of a PWM adder circuit using up/down counters operating in the subthreshold region using 0.18μm CMOS technology. Previous research has designed PWM adder circuits using analog signals as input signals. This PWM adder has a circuit configuration that uses a delay circuit to convert an analog signal into a PWM signal and adds the signal. However, the circuit configuration relies on the process of converting analog input signals to PWM signals, resulting in a circuit configuration that requires two steps. Therefore, we redesign the PWM adder circuit using the PWM signal as the input signal. From the results, a simple PWM adder circuit with a reduced circuit scale can be realized.
