Versatile universal electronically tunable current-mode filter using CCCIIs

A new versatile universal electronically tunable current-mode filter with three inputs and three outputs using three multiple-output current-controlled conveyors (MO-CCCIIs) and two grounded capacitors is proposed. The proposed configuration can be used as either a single-input three-output or three-input single-output. It can simultaneously realize all five different generic filtering signals: lowpass, bandpass, highpass, bandreject and allpass, unlike the previously reported works. It still maintains the following advantages: (i) the employment two grounded capacitors ideal for integrated circuit implementation, (ii) high output impedance good for cascadability for the current-mode circuits, (iii) no need to impose component choice, (iv) no need to employ inverting-type current input signals, and(v) low active and passive sensitivity performances. H-Spice and MATLAB simulations results are provided to demonstrate the theoretical analysis.
