A general circuit for realizing current-mode oscillators using a single negative unity-gain current-follower is presented. Using this circuit new oscillators of this class can be discovered systematically. Simulation results obtained from three new circuits are presented. The feasibility of obtaining a quadrature oscillator is investigated.

This paper describes a current-mode third-order quadrature oscillator based on current differencing transconductance amplifiers (CDTAs). Outputs of two current-mode sinusoids with90°phase difference are available in the quadrature oscillator circuit. The oscillation condition and oscillation frequency are orthogonal controllable. The proposed circuit employs only grounded capacitors and is ideal for integration. Simulation results are included to confirm the theoretical analysis.

This paper describes the conception of the current follower transconductance amplifier (CFTA) with electronically and linearly current tunable. The newly modified element is realized based on the use of transconductance cells (Gms) as core circuits. The advantage of this element is that the current transfer ratios (iz/ipandix/iz) can be tuned electronically and linearly by adjusting external DC bias currents. The circuit is designed and analyzed in 0.35 μm TSMC CMOS technology. Simulation results for the circuit with ±1.25 V supply voltages show that it consumes only 0.43 mw quiescent power with 70 MHz bandwidth. As an application example, a current-mode KHN biquad filter is designed and simulated.

In this paper, a current-mode quadrature oscillator using second-generation current conveyors (CCIIs) is presented. The proposed oscillator consists of two CCIIs, two grounded capacitors and two grounded resistors. The circuit is suitable for integrated circuit implementation by using grounded capacitors. In addition, a new current-controlled current-mode quadrature oscillator using two current controlled second generation current conveyors (CCCIIs) and two grounded capacitors can be obtained by replacing CCIIs and resistors series at X terminals with CCCIIs. The condition of oscillation and frequency of oscillation can be orthogonally controlled. The frequency of oscillation can be controlled by grounded resistors and external bias currents. The proposed circuits have been simulated by SPICE simulations. The simulation results are confirmed the proposed theory.

A new electronically tunable current-mode sinusoidal oscillator with three quadrature outputs is presented. The proposed circuit employs three translinear conveyors and two grounded capacitors to realize three quadrature outputs with independent frequency control. The circuit requires no resistors and the frequency of the oscillator can be varied over a wide range by external current control. RSPICE simulation results using the bipolar implementation of translinear conveyors are given to support the proposed circuit.

In this letter a new technique is introduced for implementing the basic logic functions using analog current-mode techniques. By expanding the logic functions in power series expressions, and using summers and multipliers, realization of the basic logic functions is simplified. Since no transistors are working in saturation, the problem of fan-out is alleviated. To illustrate the proposed technique, a circuit for simultaneous realization of the logic functions NOT, OR, NAND and XOR is considered. SPICE simulation results, obtained with 3 V supply, are included

Some time back, Kircay reported an electronically-tunable current-mode square-root-domain first-order filter capable of realizing low-pass (LP), high-pass (HP) and all-pass (AP) filter functions. When simulated in SPICE, Kircay’s circuit has been found to exhibit DC offsets in case of LP and AP responses and incorrect transient response in case of HP response. In this paper, an improved circuit overcoming these difficulties/deficiencies has been suggested and its workability of the improved circuit as well as its capability in meeting the intended objectives has been demonstrated by SPICE simulation results.
