Abstract
ABSTRACT A new electronically tunable allpass filter (ETAF) using a voltage variable inductor (VVI) is presented. The design is based on a composite CFA (Current Feedback Amplifier)–voltage tunable current conveyor transconductance amplifier (VTCCTA) analog building block (ABB). The phase (θ)-response of this first-order filter is tunable by the VVI, wherein signal-gain (K) is independently adjustable by a single resistor. Analytical estimate of phase-error (θe ) caused by device parasitic capacitors is derived. Experimentation by PSPICE simulation and hardware set-up indicates a low θe (∼3°) with a gain of 10 dB at pole-frequency 12 MHz. Next a linear voltage controlled quadrature oscillator (LVCQO) is designed by cascading the ETAF to a voltage tuned integrator in looped-feedback configuration.
