Tunable frequency versatile filters implementation using minimum number of passive elements

Two new universal active current-mode filters are proposed, one topology of which is with three inputs and one output, the other prototype is with single input and three outputs counterpart. One proposed circuit employs two current conveyors, two grounded capacitors and two resistors, wherever the other proposed circuit employs two current conveyors, two grounded capacitors and two multi-input, multi-output Operational Transconductance Amplifiers(OTA) as variable resistor for tuning the cutoff frequency of realized filters. Without changing the passive elements, the proposed circuits employ features of multifunctional, convenient for integration, low sensitivities and simple in structure.
