In this article, an adaptive quantized neural backstepping strategy is investigated for a class of nonlinear systems with input unmodeled dynamics and output constraints based on the small-gain method. A challenge lies in the considered input-quantized actuator possessing both unknown control gain and input unmodeled dynamics, and the application of the small-gain theorem when the system possesses input unmodeled dynamics and the output constraints. By the coordinate transformation of the state variables, the input unmodeled dynamics subsystem is transformed into a suitable form for applying the small-gain theorem. By a logarithmic one to one mapping, the time-varying output constraints are tackled. With these methods, the stability proof based on the small-gain theorem is completed. It is shown that all the signals are bounded, and the output signal is constrained within the preset range.
