    This paper presents the design of a voltage-mode three-input single-output multifunction first-order filter employing commercially available LT1228 IC for easy verification of the proposed circuit by laboratory measurements. The proposed filter is very simple, consisting of a single LT1228 as an active device with two resistors and one capacitor. The output voltage node is low impedance, resulting in an easy cascade-ability with other voltage-mode configurations. The proposed filter provides four filter responses: low-pass filter (LP), high-pass filter (HP), inverting all-pass filter (AP−), and non-inverting all-pass filter (AP+) in the same circuit configuration. The selection of output filter responses can be conducted without additional inverting or double gains, which is easy to be controlled by the digital method. The control of pole frequency and phase response can be conducted electronically through the bias current (I<inf>B</inf>). The matching condition during tuning the phase response with constant voltage gain is not required. Moreover, the pass-band voltage gain of the LP and HP functions can be controlled by adjusting the value of resistors without affecting the pole frequency and phase response. Additionally, the phase responses of the AP filters can be selected as both lagging or leading phase responses. The parasitic effects on the filtering performances were also analyzed and studied. The performances of the proposed filter were simulated and experimented with a ±5 V voltage supply. For the AP+ experimental result, the leading phase response for 1 kHz to 1 MHz frequency changed from 180 to 0 degrees. For the AP− experimental result, the lagging phase response for 1 kHz to 1 MHz frequency changed from 0 to −180 degrees. The design of the quadrature oscillator based on the proposed first-order filter is also included as an application example.

    This contribution presents the procedure to synthesis the voltage-mode active biquad filters using the active elements, voltage differencing differential input buffered amplifier (VD-DIBA). Two filtering categories, single input four output (SIFO) configuration and three input three output (TITO) configuration are proposed. Both proposed filters consist of two VD-DIBAs, two grounded capacitors and two resistors. All input voltage nodes for both biquad filters exhibit high impedance. The proposed SIFO biquad filter simultaneously provide four filtering responses, low pass (LP), band pass (BP), high pass (HP) and band reject (BR) functions, while the proposed TITO filter provides five filtering responses (including all pass (AP) function). The natural frequency (ω<inf>0</inf>) is linearly and electronically tuned without affecting the quality factor (Q). Also, the Q adjusting can be done without affecting the ω<inf>0</inf>. By modifying the proposed TITO biquad filter, the current controlled sinusoidal oscillator is achieved. The frequency of the generated sinewave is linearly tuned without affecting the condition of oscillation. The performances of the proposed circuits are simulated by Cadence software and the Spectre simulator of the Analog Design Environment using CMOS VD-DIBA in 0.18 μm TSMC CMOS technology and laboratory experiment using VD-DIBA constructed from commercially available ICs.
