A Novel Multiple-Input Single-Output Current-Mode Shadow Filter and Shadow Oscillator Using Current-Controlled Current Conveyors

This paper presents a novel multiple-input single-output current-mode shadow filter and oscillator using current-controlled current conveyors (CCCIIs). The CCCII current gains are used to set the filter’s quality factor and natural frequency. The filter is resistorless with grounded capacitors, making it more suitable for integration. The filter offers low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, band-stop and all-pass transfer functions in a single topology by appropriately applying the input signals. To validate the functionality of the new topology, the proposed circuit is simulated by SPICE using bipolar transistors arrays AT&T ALA400-CBIC-R.
