<p>In the last decade, there has been much effort to reduce the supply voltage of electronic circuits due to the demand for portable and battery-powered equipment. Since a low-voltage operating circuit becomes necessary, the current-mode technique is ideally suited for this purpose more than the voltage-mode one. In this paper, performance of multi output current controlled current differencing transconductance amplifier (MOCCCDTA) is evaluated using 180nm, 90nm and 45nm CMOS technology. It is found that the 45nm CMOS-based<br />MOCCCDTA provides highest frequency i.e. 33GHz. Further a Universal biquad filter has been designed using a single MOCCCDTA as an active element and two capacitors. Filter offers high frequency in GHz. Tunability of all the filter outputs with respect to a bias current has been analyzed. The tunability of the filter circuit for Bluetooth applications is also shown in this work. The performances of MOCCCDTA circuit and Universal biquad filter are illustrated by HSPICE. The simulation results are found to be in agreement with the theoretical predictions.</p>

This paper presents three current-mode quadrature oscillator (QO) circuits based on dual-output current differencing transconductance amplifier (DO-CDTA) which is designed from block diagram. The proposed circuits consist of two DO-CDTAs and two grounded capacitors. The circuits can provide two sinusoidal output currents with 90° phase difference. The condition of oscillation (CO) can be adjusted independently from the frequency of oscillation (FO) by adjusting the bias currents of the DO-CDTA. The proposed circuits have high output impedance appropriate for cascade connection application in current mode which is capable to directly drive load. The circuits use only grounded capacitors without any external resistor which is very appropriate for further development into an integrated circuit. Moreover, the oscillator circuits can also adjust amplitude of the output signal. The results of PSPICE simulation program are corresponding to the theoretical analysis.

The electronically tunable quadrature oscillator using a single multiple-output current controlled current differencing transconductance amplifier (MO-CCCDTA) and grounded passive components is presented. The proposed configuration uses a single MO-CCCDTA, two grounded capacitors and one grounded resistor. Two high-output impedance quadrature current signals and two quadrature voltage signals with 90° phase difference. The oscillation condition and oscillation frequency of the proposed quadrature oscillator are independently controllable. The use of only grounded passive components makes the proposed circuit ideal for integrated circuit implementation.
