In this paper, a new two-input three-output second-order universal filter is proposed. Two multi-output voltage controlled current followers (MO-VCCFs) and two capacitors are used in the proposed filter. The proposed filter does not have external passive resistors. It has high output impedances yielding easy cascadability. It has the property of electronic tunability. It does not need any critical passive component matching conditions. Also, it is composed of only grounded capacitors; accordingly, it is suitable for integration. Theoretical knowledge is supported via SPICE simulations.

In this paper, a new first-order current-mode (CM) universal filter employing two dual output second-generation current conveyors (DO-CCIIs), one resistor and a grounded capacitor is proposed. The proposed filter has low input and high output impedances; thus, it can be easily connected with other CM circuits. It can simultaneously realize first-order low-pass (LP) and all-pass (AP) responses and can provide high-pass (HP) response with interconnection of LP and AP responses. It can be tuned electronically by replacing with dual output second-generation current controlled conveyors (DO-CCCIIs) instead of DO-CCIIs and removing the resistor. It has only a resistor but no capacitor connected in series to X terminal of DO-CCII; accordingly, it can be operated at high frequencies. Also, it does not need any critical passive component matching conditions and cancellation constraints. A number of simulation results based on SPICE program are included to exhibit performance, workability and effectiveness of the proposed filter configuration.

In this paper, a universal current-mode second-order active-C filter for simultaneously realizing low-pass, band-pass and high-pass responses is proposed. The presented filter employs only three plus-type second-generation current-controlled conveyors (CCCII+s). This filter needs no critical active and passive component matching conditions and no additional active and passive elements for realizing high output impedance low-pass, band-pass and high-pass characteristics. The angular resonance frequency (ω0) and quality factor (Q) of the proposed resistorless filter can be tuned electronically. To verify the theoretical analysis and to exhibit the performance of the proposed filter, it is simulated with SPICE program.

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.
