    This paper presents an actively floating lossless inductance simulator based on employing voltage differencing inverting buffered amplifiers (VDIBAs) as new active components. The proposed synthetic inductor employs only two VDIBAs and one grounded capacitor, which is resistorless structure and suitable for integrated circuit design. The realized equivalent inductance is electronically adjustable through the transconductance parameter of the VDIBA. An application example of the proposed tunable floating lossless inductor on the realization of the second-order RLC bandpass filter has been designed and simulated. PSPICE simulation results with standard 0.35 μm BiCMOS process model are also included to demonstrate the utility as well as the workability of the proposed simulator.

    A FDNR (Frequency Dependent Negative Resistance) simulator has been presented, which uses single Voltage Differencing Current Conveyor (VDCC) along with two grounded capacitances to realize the pure FDNR function. The proposed FDNR simulator places itself as one of the most compact circuit architecture present in the available literature. It is a resistor-less realization and finds no requirement of any active/passive component/parameter matching to realize the FDNR behaviour. The presented analysis shows that the proposed circuit remains always stable under the effect of parasitics irrespective of any values of circuit parameters, which is not witnessed in many previously reported FDNRs. The usability of realized synthetic FDNR has been checked through validation of developed higher-order CDR filters by using the proposed FDNR. To verify the designed circuits, the presented configurations have been simulated under the PSPICE simulation environment. The experimental results are shown for the commercial ICs (AD844 and CA3080) based physical realization of described FDNR.

    Voltage differencing gain amplifier-based sinusoidal quadrature oscillator using only two grounded capacitors
    (2019-01-01)
    Channumsin, Orapin
    ;
    Background: This article describes the circuit construction of the sinusoidal quadrature oscillator using two Voltage Differencing Gain Amplifiers (VDGAs) as active devices. Methods: Since the presented oscillator circuit uses only two external grounded capacitors as pas-sive elements, it is quite suitable for monolithic integration point of view. The condition of oscilla-tion and the frequency of oscillation are non-interactive, and can be controlled electronically by tun-ing two separate biasing currents. Non-ideal analysis and sensitivity performance are also discussed. Results: The feasibility of the designed oscillator is justified by the PSPICE simulation results based on TSMC 0.35-µm CMOS process parameters. Conclusion: The effects of the VDGA non-idealities on the proposed circuit are also provided, and the computer simulations based on TSMC 0.35-mm CMOS model parameters are included to evalu-ate the performance of the circuit.

    This study introduces four novel configurations of first-order and second-order multifunction inverse filters in both voltage-mode (VM) and current-mode (CM) using second-generation voltage conveyors (VCIIs). The first-order VM and CM inverse filters utilize only three passive components together with one VCII for VM and two VCIIs for CM realizations, which can provide lowpass and highpass inverse filter responses. The latter, second-order VM and CM multifunction inverse filters, can be constructed using the corresponding first-order inverse filters as their core circuits. These filters offer all the basic inverse filter functions, including lowpass, bandpass, and highpass inverse responses with all gains obtained from the same design. All the inverse filter realizations are cascadable. No component matching requirements are necessary for all filter responses. The non-ideal effects of the VCII on the performance of the proposed inverse filters are thoroughly examined. To prove the feasibility of the designs, the PSPICE program performed several simulations, utilizing model parameters of 0.18 µm CMOS technology. Some testing experiments were conducted using the commercially available IC-type AD844s for evaluating the practical performance of the designed inverse filters.

    Resistorless tunable capacitance multiplier using single voltage differencing inverting buffered amplifier
    (2017-01-01)
    The paper focuses on a novel configuration for the realization of the resistorless tunable grounded capacitance multiplier circuit using the newly introduced active building block called voltage differencing inverting buffered amplifier (VDIBA). The proposed capacitance multiplier circuit consists of only single VDIBA, one capacitor and one NMOS transistor acting as a voltagecontrolled resistor (VCR). The equivalent capacitance value of the synthetic capacitor can be tuned electronically by adjusting the biasing current of the VDIBA and/or changing the control voltage of the VCR. To evaluate the behaviour of the circuit, an illustrative RC low-pass filter has been provided. Simulation results with TSMC 0.25 μm CMOS technology verify the theoretical analysis.

    Two topologies of minimum component single input multiple output (SIMO) filters are designed by employing a versatile active building block (ABB), the current conveyor transconductance amplifier (CCTA). The proposed filters work in current mode (CM) and trans-admittance mode (TAM). The CM SIMO filter is designed using two CCTA and two grounded capacitors. The CM filter can be converted to TAM filter just by adding a grounded resistor without any change in the topology. There is no need of passive component matching, and the filters provide all the five responses namely, high-pass (HP), band-pass (BP), low-pass (LP), all-pass (AP), and band-stop (BS) simultaneously. In addition, it provides an independent electronic tunability of angular frequency (ω) and quality factor (Q). The active and passive sensitivities of the filter parameters are low. In CM mode the filter offers low input impedances and high output impedances and in TAM mode the filter offers high input impedance and hight output impedance that support the cascadeability. The CM and TAM filters are designed for a frequency 16.23MHz and the simulation results employing 0.18 µm CMOS technology parameters at a supply voltage of ±1.25 V are obtained using Cadence software to validate the proposed design. Also, the proposed CM SIMO universal filter has been implemented in hardware to confirm its practicality. The commercially available integrated circuits (ICs), the current feedback operational amplifier (AD844) and operational transconductance amplifier (CA3080) and employed for the experimental validation.

    Two-Quadrant Current-Mode Logarithmic and Anti-logarithmic Amplifiers with Temperature Compensation
    This paper proposes circuit topologies for realizing two-quadrant current-mode logarithmic and anti logarithmic amplifier configurations with temperature compensation. The design approach employs the translinear approach to generate the output currents that directly correspond to the absolute values of the logarithmic and anti logarithmic functions. The proposed circuits can operate at a low-level supply voltage of 2V with both input and output current signals. A detailed examination of the non-ideal circuit performance has also been considered. To validate their functionality and illustrate their superior thermal stability, the developed circuits have been simulated. All simulations were conducted via PSPICE for a real bipolar transistor model of the HFA3096 technology.

    This article proposes new electronically tunable simulation configurations of synthetic grounded and floating frequency-dependent negative resistances (FDNRs) without using any resistances. The presented simulators have been realised by using two voltage differencing transconductance amplifiers (VDTAs) along with two capacitances. As per the knowledge of the authors, the depicted VDTA-based simulator circuits are the most compact configurations as compared to any other VDTA-based pure FDNR simulator reported so far. The circuits possess the feature of electronic tunability which means that the realised FDNR value can be controlled by using bias currents of employed VDTAs. Moreover, the reported structures simulate ideal FDNR behaviour without any requirement of fulfiling the parameter-related conditions. An analysis has been presented and discussed to find the behaviour of the presented circuits under non-ideal effects. The operation of the simulated FDNRs has been checked by constructing higher-order CDR filters. The working of the designed circuits has been shown through the simulation results generated using PSPICE with 0.18 um CMOS technology. Finally, the experimental results using commercial IC have been discussed.

    Cascadable current-mode first-order allpass filter using current controlled conveyors
    (2013-10-01)
    This paper presents a canonical current-mode first-order allpass filter using two current controlled conveyors (CCCIIs) and a single grounded capacitor. The proposed circuit simultaneously realizes both inverting and non-inverting types of first-order allpass functions without needing component matching constraints. Its pole frequency (ω<inf>0</inf>) can be adjusted electronically by means of a bias current of the CCCII. The presented circuit also possesses both low-input and high-output impedances, which are suitable for current-mode cascading. Simulation results including frequency response and transient analysis are incorporated to confirm the theoretical analysis.
