All-pass filters using a single current conveyor

Abstract

Current conveyors are unity gain active elements exhibiting high linearity, wide dynamic range and better high frequency performance compared with their voltage mode counterparts. In this study a set of single positive-type second generation current conveyor based all-pass filters is presented and a catalogue of canonical topologies is given with some properties in tabular form. In contrast with single topology presentations, 22 different topologies are presented which exhibit identical transfer functions but differ in the number of passive components, component matching constraints, possibility of gain adjustment and other properties.
