A new current-mode universal filter is presented. The proposed filter uses three four-terminal floating nullors (FTFNs), three grounded capacitors, and four grounded resistors. The proposed filter has three inputs and one output and can realize lowpass, highpass, bandpass, notch, and allpass transfer functions without changing the circuit topology. The proposed filter enjoys low active and passive sensitivities and independent control of the parametersω0andω0Q0using grounded elements.

A novel cascadable current-mode universal filter employing three current-controlled conveyors (translinear conveyors) and two grounded capacitors is proposed. The circuit with single input and three high-impedance current outputs, ideal for cascading, realizes low-pass, band-pass, and inverting band-reject transfer functions. Inverting high-pass and inverting all-pass transfer functions are obtained by simply connecting the available outputs. The proposed circuit enjoys tuning through external currents, low total harmonic distortion (THD), good dynamic range, attractive sensitivity performance and is ideal for IC implementation.

A universal active biquad using the four-terminal floating nullors (FTFNs) is presented. The propsed circuit uses two FTFNs, three capacitors and two resistors. The proposed circuit has three input voltages and can simultaneously provide a high-impedance output current and/or an output voltage. Without changing the circuit topology, the output voltage can realise lowpass, highpass, bandpass, notch and allpass transfer functions and the output current can realise bandpass and highpass transfer functions. The proposed circuit enjoys low active and passive sensitivities and independent control of the parametersωoandω0/Q0.

A Current

This research article explores the possible applications of voltage differencing current conveyor (VDCC), as a current mode universal filter and a sinusoidal oscillator. Without the need for an additional active/passive element, a very simple hardware modification makes it a dual-mode quadrature oscillator from the filter configuration. Both the proposed circuit requires only two VDCC and all grounded passive elements, hence a preferable choice for integration. The filter has some desirable features such as availability of all five explicit outputs, independent tunability of filter parameters. Availability of explicit quadrature current outputs, independence in start and frequency of oscillations, makes it a better oscillator design. Apart from prevalent CMOS simulation results, VDCC is also realized and experimentally tested using the off-the-shelf integrated circuit. All the pen and paper analysis such as non-ideal, sensitivity and parasitic analysis supports the design.

Filter Structures

Voltage-mode and current-mode fractional-order filter topologies, which are capable of realizing various types of transfer functions, are introduced in this paper. Thanks to the employment of the transconductance parameter of the MOS transistors, the derived filter structures offer the benefit of the electronic adjustment of their frequency characteristics. With regards to the literature, the number of MOS transisitors is minimized leading to significant reduction of the circuit complexity and power dissipation. Simulation results, derived using the Design Kit of the 0.35 μm Austria Mikro Systeme CMOS process and the Cadence IC design suite, confirm the correct operation of the presented filter structures.
