    The realization of an electronically tunable phase shifter using current differencing transconductance amplifiers (CDTAs) as active components is presented. The proposed filter employs only two CDTAs and one virtually grounded capacitor, which its phase shift can be electronically adjusted by varying the bias current of the CDTA. The circuit also exhibits high-output impedance, which is easy cascading in the current-mode operation. As application example, the current-mode biquad filter based on the proposed CDTA-based phase shifter circuit is also presented. PSPICE simulation results of the proposed circuit and its application are given to confirm the theoretical analysis.

    CDTA-based current limiters and applications
    In this paper, a synthesis of analog current limiter (CL) building blocks based on a current differencing transconductance amplifier (CDTA) is proposed. The breakpoint and the slope of the resulting transfer characteristic obtained from the proposed CDTA-based CLs are electronically programmable through the external bias currents. To demonstrate versatility of the proposed electronically tunable CLs, some nonlinear applications to programmable current- mode precision full-wave rectifier and piecewise-linear function approximation generators are also presented. SPICE simulations confirm the effectiveness of the proposed circuits. © 2008 IEEE.

    ;
    In this work, a current tunable current-mode multiphase sinusoidal oscillator (MSO) employing current differencing transconductance amplifier (CDTA)-based first-order allpass sections is presented. The proposed MSO circuit, which uses only two CDTAs and one virtually grounded capacitor for each phase, can generate arbitrary 2 n-phase current-output signals (n = 2, 3, 4, ...) equally spaced in phase, all at high output impedance terminals. The oscillation condition and the oscillation frequency can be controlled electronically and independently by adjusting the bias current of the CDTA. The oscillator has low-sensitivity performance. Simulation results are also given to verify the functionality of the proposed oscillator. © 2008 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.

    A realization of a current-mode second-order notch filter using current followers (CFs) and a minimum number of passive elements is proposed. The proposed filter has a high output impedance, consequently it can be cascaded without using additional buffers. The filter displays low incremental passive sensitivities. Moreover, if the passive element values are properly chosen, the circuit permits also the realization of allpass response. The SPICE simulation results are given to verify the theoretical predicted behaviors. © 2005 IEEE.

    CCCII-based high-output impedance current-mode universal filter employing only grounded capacitors

    ;
    A current-controlled current-mode universal filter with three inputs and one output using only three current-controlled current conyevors (CCCIIs) and two grounded capacitors is described. The proposed filter provides lowpass, bandpass, highpass, bandstop and allpass current outputs at a high impedance terminal, which enable easy cascadability. The filter also offers an independent electronic control of the natural frequency ω<inf>0</inf> and the parameter ω<inf>0</inf>Q through adjusting the bias current of the CCCII. No critical matching condition is required for realizing all the filter responses, and all the incremental parameter sensitivities are low. The performances of the proposed circuit are simulated with PSPICE to confirm the presented theory. © 2006 ICASE.

    Digitally programmable current follower and its applications
    In this paper, a CMOS implementation of the digitally programmable current follower (DP-CF) is presented. To achieve very low-input resistance, it is realized using a modification of a low-input resistance stage as an input stage. To achieve the precise digital control of the current gain, the current division technique is used. The proposed DP-CF is operated under ± 1.5 V voltage supplies, and designed with 0.5-μ m CMOS SCN05H process. Applications of the proposed DP-CF in realizing digitally programmable current-mode filter and rectifier are given. SPICE simulation results of the proposed circuit and its applications are also included. © 2008 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.

    This paper describes a current-mode multifunction filter with a minimum number of active and passive elements using dual-output current followers (DO-CFs) as active elements. By based on the dual-output current-controlled current conveyor (DO-CCCII)-based current followers, the proposed filter consists of only two DO-CFs and two grounded capacitor, without an external passive resistor requirement. The filter can realize all the standard biquadratic functions without changing the circuit configuration. Moreover, its natural angular frequency and bandwidth is controllable independently and electronically by adjusting an external bias current, and its active and passive sensitivities are low.

    Current-controlled current-mode biquadratic filter with two inputs and three outputs using multiple-output FTFNs

    A current-controlled current-mode biquadratic filter using a modified type of a four-terminal floating nullor (FTFN), which is called as an electronically tunable multiple-output FTFN (ET-FTFN), is proposed. The proposed filter with two-input and three-output terminals comprises only ET-FTFNs and four grounded passive elements. The filter can simultaneously realize the inverting-type lowpass, noninverting-type lowpass, inverting-type banpass, noninverting-type bandpass, highpass, bandstop and allpass filter functions. The natural angular frequency and the quality factor are independently controlled by adjusting the external bias currents of the ET-FTFNs. All the active and passive sensitivities are low. PSPICE simulation results are employed to verify the circuit performance. © 2006 ICASE.

By an appropriate choice of virtually grounded passive components, the configurations can simultaneously realize lowpass, highpass, bandpass, bandstop and allpass voltage transfer functions, all at low resistance outputs. The natural angular frequency and the quality factor can orthogonal controllable. PSPICE simulation results demonstrating the feasibility of the technique are also included. © 2005 IEEE.

    This paper presents a new single-resistance-controlled (SRC) sinusoidal quadrature oscillator with reduce number of passive elements using only two current-feedback operational amplifiers (CFOAs). The proposed oscillator configuration comprising two CFOAs, three resistors and two capacitors provides two sinusoidal voltage outputs in phase quadrature. The circuit has the advantage of independent control of the condition of oscillation and the oscillation frequency through a single resistor. In addition, both proposed circuit configurations have good active and passive sensitivity performance. PSPICE simulation results based on commercially available AD844-type CFOAs are also included, showing the excellent performance of the proposed oscillator configuration. © 2008 SICE.
