realization of novel cascadable current-mode all-pass sections

This paper introduces four new resistorless circuits of first-order current-mode all-pass filter (cmapf) based on dual-x current conveyor transconductance amplifier (dxccta). all the four circuits use a single dxccta and a capacitor for their realization. the main features of the proposed cmapfs are: use of minimum active and passive components, resistorless realization, electronically adjustable pole frequency, easily cascadable, good sensitivity performance with respect to active and passive elements, low total harmonic distortion of output current (0.74%) and good operating frequency range (39.2 mhz). the non-ideal analysis of the proposed circuits has also been explored. moreover, two applications of the proposed first-order cmapf in terms of second order cmapf and current-mode quadrature oscillator are also presented. hspice simulations have been carried out with 0.18 μm cmos process parameters to validate the proposed circuits.
