This paper presents a versatile tunable current-mode universal biquadratic filter with four-input and three-output employing only two multioutput differential voltage current conveyors (MO-DVCCs), two grounded capacitors, and a well-known method for replacement of three grounded resistors by MOSFET-based electronic resistors. The proposed configuration exhibits high-output impedance which is important for easy cascading in the current-mode operations. The proposed circuit can be used as either a two-input three-output circuit or a three-input single-output circuit. In the operation of two-input three-output circuit, the bandpass, highpass, and bandreject filtering responses can be realized simultaneously while the allpass filtering response can be easily obtained by connecting appropriated output current directly without using additional stages. In the operation of three-input single-output circuit, all five generic filtering functions can be easily realized by selecting different three-input current signals. The filter permits orthogonal controllability of the quality factor and resonance angular frequency, and no inverting-type input current signals are imposed. All the passive and active sensitivities are low. Postlayout simulations were carried out to verify the functionality of the design.

A current-mode universal biquadratic filter with three input terminals and one output terminal is presented. The architecture uses two current conveyors (CCs), two grounded capacitors and two grounded resistors; and can realize all standard second-order filter functions — highpass, bandpass, lowpass, notch and allpass. Moreover, the circuit still offers the following advantage features: very low active and passive sensitivities, using of grounded capacitors and resistors which is ideal for integrated circuit implementation, without requirements for critical component matching conditions and very high output impedance. The workability of the proposed circuit has been verified via HSPICE simulations using TSMC 0.18 μm, level 49 MOSFET technology.

In this paper, a new current-mode (CM) all-pass filter employing two Dual-Output Second-Generation Current Conveyors (DO–CCIIs), one grounded resistor and one grounded capacitor is presented. The proposed circuit exhibits low input impedance and high output impedance, which makes it suitable for cascading. Moreover, adding two extra resistors to the proposed circuit, a new gain-variable voltage-mode (VM) all-pass filter is obtained. A quadrature oscillator employing minimum number of grounded passive components is derived from the developed CM filter as an application of the first-order all-pass filter. Both of the proposed all-pass filters do not require matching of passive components. The effects of the parasitic impedances of the DO–CCIIs on the transfer function (TF) of the proposed CM filter as an example are investigated. In addition, the proposed CM all-pass filter and oscillator circuit are simulated using SPICE simulation program to confirm the theory.

This paper presents a versatile universal current-mode and transresistance-mode biquadratic filter using only two multiple outputs second-generation current conveyors (MOCCIIs), two grounded capacitors, and three grounded resistors. The proposed configuration can realize all five standard filtering functions from one current-output terminal and one voltage-output terminal, and also provide all these filtering functions from different current-output and voltage-output terminals without changing the filter topology. Moreover, the proposed biquad filter still achieves many advantages like the employment of all grounded passive components, and the minimum number of active component counts, in addition to having no need of inverting-type input signals or double-type input signals for the use of special input signals, high output impedance and low sensitivity performance. H-Spice simulation results confirm the theory.
