Abstract
This paper presents a method for capacitance scaling of Fractional Capacitor (FC) which is implemented using Current Feedback Operational Amplifiers (CFOA) based Capacitance Multipliers (C Multipliers). The circuit facilitates the change in FC value without changing component values in R-C network used for FC modelling or fabricating a new FC. The performance of the proposed circuit is examined for non ideal effects of CFOA. Effective impedance of scaled FC is examined through MATLAB simulations. The functionality of the realized scalers is verified using SPICE simulations where the FC is modelled using domino RC ladder network. Simulation results for impedance magnitude and phase responses are presented for various scaling factors and are compared with theoretical counterparts. The circuit application of proposed FC scaler is demonstrated through implementation of fractional order lossy and lossless integrators; and may be extended to fractional order filters, oscillators, controllers etc.
