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.

A new mixed-mode biquad circuit is presented. The circuit uses four dual-output second-generation currentcontrolled current-conveyors (DOCCCIIs) and two grounded capacitors and can realize lowpass, highpass, bandpass and notch responses from the same topology. The circuit can be driven by voltage or current and its output can be voltage or current. The parametersωoandωo/Qoenjoy independent electronic tunability. Simulation results are included.


This article given a second generation current controlled current conveyor positive (CCCII+), second generation current controlled current conveyor negative (CCCII-), Quadrature oscillator with high-Q frequency choosing network and implementing completely different phase oscillators by employing (CCCII+) positive and (CCCII-) negative, and high band pass filter network, the approach is predicted on the CMOS technology . The root of this concept is, considering a customary voltage mode oscillator which consists of band pass filter with prime quality issue (high-Q) and voltage mode amplifier is transfigure into current mode oscillator by replacing tans-conductance amplifier. Because the loop of the oscillator is has lavish selectivity, the oscillator process less distortion. In addition 3dB bandwidth, oscillating condition, oscillation frequency of the oscillator could linearly, independently and electronically be tuned by adjusting the bias current of the (CCCII±)[1], lastly different simulations have been carried out to verify the linearity between output and input ports, range of frequency operations. These results can justify that the designed circuits are workable.

This paper presents new programmable universal biquadratic filters using current conveyor transconductance amplifiers (CCTAs) by which both voltage- and current-mode filters can be obtained. The proposed filters use second-generation current conveyor (CCII) which is the first stage of CCTA to operate as current conveyor analog switch (CCAS) and this CCAS will be used to program the filtering functions such as low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, band-stop and all-pass filters. Unlike previous universal filters, the filtering functions of the proposed filters can be programmed using the bias currents of CCTAs without changing any input and output connections. The natural frequency and quality factor of all filtering functions can be controlled electronically and orthogonally using the bias currents of transconductance amplifiers. Also gain response of all transfer functions can be adjusted. The active and passive sensitivities of the filters are low. The proposed programmable filters have been simulated using 0.18[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m CMOS process from TSMC. PSPICE simulation results are included to confirm workability of the proposed circuits.

None of the previously reported mixed-mode universal filters can achieve the following important advantage: no need of component matching conditions. This paper presents a new mixed-mode (including voltage, current, transadmittance, and transimpedance modes) universal biquadratic filter with no need of matching conditions (including no need of component matching and no need of input matching conditions). The proposed filter structure with nine outputs employs two plus-type fully differential current conveyors (P-type FDCCIIs), two grounded capacitors, four grounded resistors and one floating/grounded resistor, which can realize voltage, current, transadmittance, and transimpedance modes universal filtering responses (lowpass, highpass, bandpass, notch, and allpass) from the same topology without matching conditions. Moreover, the proposed circuit still offers many important advantages: the employment of two grounded capacitors, the simultaneous realizations of a lot of filtering functions, using only grounded resistors as the control factors of all filter parameters and gains, having controllable gains in current and transimpedance modes without disturbing filter parameters [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]/Q, and Q, cascadably connecting the former voltage-mode (VM) stage and the latter current-mode (CM) stage, no capacitors bringing extra poles degrading high-frequency performance, and low active and passive sensitivity performances. H-spice simulations with TSMC 0.18[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m 1[Formula: see text]P6M CMOS process technology validate theoretical predictions.

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.
