Abstract This work presents a wide-band active filter for RF receiver. The design uses Carbon Nanotube-FET (CNFET) based differential voltage current conveyor (DVCC) for the implementation of the proposed filter. The filter is designed to operate Ku-band frequencies (12-18 GHz), which is used in satellite communication. Additionally, CMOS based circuit and CNFET-based circuit for DVCC are compared for the performance evaluation. HSPICE simulations have been carried out to test the design aspects of the circuit. The CNFET-based circuit has better results in terms of 60 % reduction in the power consumption and about six times improvement in the bandwidth. The filter utilizes low supply voltage of 0.9 V and consumes 524 µW only. The proposed filter outperforms the existing CMOS-based designs which suggests its usage for low-power high-frequency analog circuits.
