Application possibilities of controllable current amplifier

This thesis deals with the application using digitally controlled current amplifiers DACA (Digitally Adjustable Current Amplifer), which was developed at the Department of Telecommunications FEEC in cooperation with ON Semiconductor in 2010. In introduction is decribed the topic of active filters and oscillators. Farther active current components, besides DACA are described current conveyor UCC (Universal Current Conveyor), current amplifier DO-CF (Dual-Output Current Follower), MO-CF (Multiple-Output Current Follower) and FD-CF (Fully Diferential Current Follower) and operational transconductant amplifier BOTA (Balanced-Output Operational Transconductance Amplifer) and MOTA (Multiple-Output Operational Transconductance Amplifier). The following is a compilation of theories circuits using signal flow graphs, which are designed using a simulated filter circuits to control the cutoff frequency or the quality factor. Then design and simulation with auxiliary oscillator circuit AGC for controlling the oscillation frequency. Simulations are conducted with ideal models and with models that include some real properties. The conclusion of this work is devoted to the printed circuit board design for a selected filter circuit realization and measurement
