Outline
• The ear and the cochlea• Silicon Cochlea

Modeling of the filtering operation
• The cochlea can be modeled with several 2-order filters.
• Each filter is creater cascoding several 2-order low pass filters.
• More stability and gain is achieved.• The spatial dependence of the cut-off
frequency is modeled with distributed resistors.

1000 cascode filters were employed. A real emulation should use 3000.
