New OTA-C universal current-mode/trans-admittance biquads

This letter introduces two new OTA-C universal Current mode biquads which offer almost all of the desirable features (expected from a good universal biquad) simultaneously, without any trade-offs. With first OTA removed and the input current source replaced by an input voltage source, both the new circuits can also realise trans-admittance-type universal biquad filters. The workability of the new circuits has been established by SPICE simulation results of their CMOS-implementable versions.
