Three inputs and one output voltage-mode universal biquadratic filter using one CCII and one CCIII

Abstract

A voltage-mode universal biquadratic filter using one second-generation current conveyor (CCII), one third-generation current conveyor (CCIII), two capacitors and two resistors is presented. The proposed voltage-mode biquadratic circuit has three input terminals and one output terminal and can realize all the standard filter functions that are highpass, bandpass, lowpass, notch and allpass filters without changing the circuit topology. Both its active and passive sensitivities are small. The proposed circuit does not need one more active component for the unity-gain inverting of the input signal in each filter realization.
