Second Order Universal Filter Using Four Terminal Floating Nullor (FTFN)

Abstract

In this research paper, a voltage mode second order universal filter using Four Terminal Floating Nullor (FTFN) is presented. The proposed design uses Three Input Single Output (TISO) for the realization of all filter responses namely Low Pass Filter (LPF), High Pass Filter (HPF), Band Pass Filter (BPF), Notch Filter (NF) and All Pass Filter (APF) by using proper input selection. The analog building block, FTFN is simply realized with two commercially available AD844 ICs. The proposed second order universal filter comes with a single FTFN block with four passive components in which no component matching is required for filter realization. The universal filter is well verified using PSPICE simulation. In addition, experimental verification for the second order APF has been performed that confirms the theoretical expectations.
