Two new types of floating current conveyors are introduced. Each type has four ports: Y, X and two Z ports. The first type is the Floating Second Generation Current Conveyor (FCCII) and includes both CCII+ and CCII- as special cases. The second type is the Floating Inverting Second Generation Current Conveyor (FICCII) and includes both ICCII+ and ICCII- as special cases. The Nodal Admittance Matrix (NAM) stamp for the Nullator-Pathological Current Mirror is derived. Examples are given together with a CMOS circuit realizing both the FCCII and FICCII.

Background: Three high input impedances voltage-mode first-order filters are presented. Methods: The first proposed circuit uses one multi-output second-generation current conveyor, two resistors and one grounded capacitor. The second proposed circuit uses two second-generation current conveyors, three resistors and one grounded capacitor. The third proposed circuit uses one multi-output second-generation current conveyor, one resistor and two grounded capacitors. Results: First-order lowpass and allpass filters can be simultaneously obtained in the first proposed circuit. First-order lowpass, highpass and allpass filters can be simultaneously obtained in the second proposed circuit. The third proposed circuit can realize first-order allpass filter. Conclusion: All the proposed circuits have the advantages of high input impedances and using only grounded capacitors.

In this paper, a new floating analog memristance simulator circuit based on second generation current conveyors and passive elements is proposed. Theoretical derivations are presented which decribe the circuit characteristics. The hardware of proposed simulator circuit is built using commercially available components. Theoretical derivations are validated with PSPICE simulation and experimental results. Performance of circuit was tested with simple example circuits. All results show that proposed simulator circuit provides frequency dependent pinched hysteresis loop and nonvolatility features. Exciting frequency, minimum and maximum memristance values and memristance range can be adjustable with simple passive element values. Simulator circuit has a frequency range of 1[Formula: see text]Hz to 40[Formula: see text]kHz.

Some new first-order all-pass filters using a second-generation current conveyor are reported. Two circuits have higher input impedance than reported very recently and use a grounded capacitor. Additionally two more circuits have been reported, one of which has minimum passive and active components and has the facility of single resistance tuning. The other circuit has high input impedance and uses two current conveyors but has one passive component less than the similar circuits reported earlier.

Systematic synthesis method to generate a family of two integrator loop filters based on nodal admittance matrix (NAM) expansion is given. Eight equivalent circuits are obtained; six of them are new. Each of the generated circuits uses two grounded capacitors and employs two current conveyors (CCII) or two inverting current conveyors (ICCII) or a combination of both. The NAM expansion is also used to generate eight equivalent grounded passive elements two integrator loop filters using differential voltage current conveyor (DVCC); six of them are new. Changing the input port of excitation, two new families of eight unity gain lowpass filter circuits each using two CCII or ICCII or combination of both or two DVCC are obtained.

A universal active biquad based on the dual-output second-generation current-conveyor (CCII±) is presented. The circuit uses only six CCII± and can, simultaneously, support three mixed-mode transfer functions and five current-mode transfer functions. The circuit uses grounded resistors and capacitors and enjoys independent grounded-element control of the filter parameters.

Although the adjoint network theorem preserves all the circuit properties it does not, however, guarantee that the floating property of an element is maintained. In other words, the adjoint of a floating element may not be floating and vice-versa a nonfloating element may have an adjoint floating element as will be explained in this paper. An important and new property of the Nodal Admittance Matrix (NAM) is that it can identify any element as a floating or nonfloating. The four floating basic building blocks including the nullor are tabulated. It is shown that the nullor and the Voltage Mirror (VM)–Current Mirror (CM) pair are self adjoint. The other two floating elements namely Nullator–CM pair and the VM–Norator pair are adjoint to each other. The NAM of the Op Amp family and Current Conveyor (CCII) family are also given. Two examples are given demonstrating the generation of two families of CCII filters from two known two-CCII filter circuits with demonstration of the floatation property in each of the two filters. Although the paper has a tutorial nature it also includes new important results.

The Differential Voltage Current Conveyor (DVCC) with its two polarities namely DVCC- and DVCC+ are reviewed together with their pathological element representations. Their two adjoint building blocks are the Balanced Output Current Conveyor (BOCCII) and the Balanced Output Inverting Current Conveyor (BOICCII) are also discussed with their pathological element representations. The universal CMOS circuit realizing these four building blocks is also included. The Nodal Admittance Matrix (NAM) stamp for the DVCC-, DVCC+, BOCCII and BOICCII are also given. Among the four basic building blocks considered the DVCC- is the only floating building block. Examples are given showing that some of the reported filters are related to each other by the adjoint network theorem.
