Abstract
An integrated circuit including a first passive component of capacitive, resistive, or inductive type, including: a plurality of second and third passive components of said type, each having a same first theoretical value Compu_t, the second components being connected together so that their values add, and each third component being associated with a first switch having its state determining whether the value of the third component adds to the values of the second components; and a plurality of fourth passive components of said type, each associated with a second switch having its state determining whether the value of the fourth component adds to the values of the second components, at least one of the fourth passive components having a second theoretical value equal to (1−P).Compu_t or to (1+P).Compu_t, P being positive and smaller than ½.
