In this paper, a new simulated inductor employing two resistors, one capacitor, and only a single gain-variable third-generation current conveyor (GVCCIII) is proposed. To exhibit the performance of the proposed simulated inductor, it is used in a parallel R-L-C current-mode filter. The frequency-dependent nonideal voltage gain effects of the GVCCIII on the proposed inductor are given. The low- and high-frequency limitations of the simulated inductor are investigated in detail. The simulations performed with the SPICE program agree with the theoretical analysis. Also, the proposed circuit is tested experimentally using commercially available active devices (AD844 ICs of Analog Devices) to confirm the theory.

Minaei, Shahram (Dogus Author) -- Full conference title: 2009 Joint IEEE North-East Workshop on Circuits and Systems and TAISA Conference : (NEWCAS-TAISA 2009) ; Toulouse, France, 28 June - 1 July 2009 A high performance CMOS current differencing buffered amplifier (CDBA) is presented in this paper. The proposed circuit operates with the power supplies of plusmn0.75 V and consumes low power.

As an application example, a second-order notch filter is chosen from the literature to demonstrate the performance of the proposed circuit.

A universal current-mode active-C filter simultaneously realizing low-pass, band-pass and high-pass responses is proposed. The filter can also realize notch and all-pass responses with interconnection of relevant output currents. The presented filter employs four second-generation current controlled conveyors (CCCIIs) as active elements and only two capacitors as passive elements. The proposed active-C filter can be tuned electronically, and has low element sensitivities.

In this study, we present a new topology for realizing a grounded inductor employing only a single current conveyor, called a negative-type modified inverting second-generation current conveyor (MICCII-), and a minimum number of passive components, two resistors, and one capacitor. The non-ideality effects of the MICCII- on a simulated inductor are investigated. To demonstrate the performance of the presented inductance simulator, we use it to construct a third order Butterworth high-pass filter and a parallel resonant circuit. Simulation results are given to confirm the theoretical analysis.

This paper presents new circuits for realizing both current-mode and voltage-mode proportional-integral- derivative (PID), proportional-derivative (PD) and proportional-integral (PI) controllers employing second- generation current conveyors (CCIIs) as active elements. All of the proposed PID, PI and PD controllers have grounded passive elements and adjustable parameters. The controllers employ reduced number of active and passive components with respect to the traditional op-amp-based PID, PI and PD controllers. A closed loop control system using the proposed PID controller is designed and simulated with SPICE. I. INTRODUCTION The proportional-integral-derivative (PID), proportional- integral (PI) and proportional-derivative (PD) controllers with adjustable parameters are widely used in many industrial control systems, and usually have been implemented with operational amplifiers (op-amps). PID controller realizations using op-amps employ excessive number of active and passive components. Current conveyors, especially plus-type second-generation current conveyors (CCII+s) have larger bandwidth and dynamic range, and also greater linearity than op-amps (1). Employing only CCII+s simplifies the configuration thus gyrator (2), synthetic floating inductances (3-4), voltage- mode filter (5) and transfer function synthesis (6-7) employing only CCII+s have been reported in the literature. Despite of several circuits such as derivative, integral, proportion and summer constructed with op-amps (8-9) that can be used to implement PID, PI and PD controllers, current conveyors have not been used to realize PID, PD and PI controllers in the literature so far. In this paper, novel current-mode and voltage-mode PID, PI and PD controllers employing CCII+s as active elements are proposed. In the proposed current-mode controllers, output currents are taken from high impedance terminals of the CCII+s. Also input voltages are applied to the Y-terminals of the CCII+s in the presented voltage- mode PID, PI and PD controllers. These properties make the proposed circuit ideal for using in cascaded systems. All the proposed controller realizations employ only grounded passive components, and do not require passive element matching so the circuits are suitable for integration. The PID, PI and PD parameters can be selected independently. Also simulations are performed using SPICE program to verify the theoretical analyzes.

Phase equalizers also called all-pass filters are widely used to shift the phase of an analog signal without altering its magnitude. In this study, a new realization of phase equalizer using one current controlled conveyor (CCCII), one operational amplifier (op-amp) and two capacitors is presented. The proposed circuit does not use any resistors thus makes it suitable for integration. Also the pole frequency of the proposed circuit can be tuned electronically. Simulation results are included to verify theory.
