The original filter has a single current input and three voltage outputs and operates in transimpedance-mode. It can generate all biquadratic filter functions of low-pass, high-pass and band-pass, and also band-reject and all-pass filter responses by selecting different output signal combinations. This filter can be converted into voltage-mode by an additional input resistor. It can also be used in current-mode at the output by using one extra load resistor at each output. With these additional resistors at the input and outputs the filter operates in transadmittance-mode. The structure of the new filter proposed contains two capacitors, three resistors and three CDBAs.","PeriodicalId":266120,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2005 European Conference on Circuit Theory and Design, 2005.","volume":"66 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126978957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For example, from a DC bias current of 10 /spl mu/A to 50 /spl mu/A, the controlled inductance (L/sub x/) that defines the amplifier transconductance varies from L/sub x/=406 /spl mu/H to L/sub x/=47 /spl mu/H.
