Digitally-configurable analog VLSI chip and method for real-time solution of partial differential equations

摘要

A programmable Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) chip and method for the analog solution of a family of partial differential equations commonly encountered in engineering and scientific computing: The Laplace equation, the diffusion or conduction equation, the wave equation, the Poission equation, the modified diffusion equation, the modified wave equation, and the wave equation with damping.
