only CCCIIs and grounded capacitors

In this paper, a current-mode (CM) analog filter for simultaneously realizing high output impedance low-pass, band-pass and high-pass analog responses besides high output impedance notch and all-pass analog filter responses with interconnection of the relevant output currents, is presented. Also, two CM filters for simultaneously providing high output impedance universal filter responses are derived from the proposed one. All of the introduced CM topologies employ a canonical number of only grounded capacitors without requiring any resistors, and do not need critical component matching conditions. All of the developed circuits have low input impedance and high output impedance resulting in easy cascadability with other CM ones. Frequency dependent non-ideal gain and parasitic impedance effects on the performance of the presented first filter are investigated as examples. In order the show the performance of the filter and verify the theory, simulations are accomplished with SPICE program. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved
