DESIGN OF ANALOG FILTERS USING SECOND GENERATION CURRENT CONVEYORS

Current Mode of operation is drawing the attention of many researchers due to their potential advantages such as wider Bandwidth, greater gain, higher slew-rate, etc., So, the design of Universal filters in current mode is essential keeping in view of power, Bandwidth. This book concentrates on the analysis of some of the Universal filter Topologies which are realized using second generation current conveyor. For each Topology, the detailed mathematical analysis is carried out using circuit analysis techniques. The transfer function expressions are derived. The effects of floating and grounded point passive elements are briefly discussed with respect to hardware complexity, Quality factor and resonate angular frequency. The main objective of the book is to analyze and compare various universal filter topologies. The objective of the book also focusses on the selection of the current conveyor by studying various generations in it.The Universal filters are used to act like low pass, High pass Band pass and Band reject filters. The merits and demerits of each Topology is compared.
