Abstract: | A design of current-mode continuous-time filters for low voltage and high frequency applications using complementary bipolar current mirror pairs is presented. The proposed current-mode filters consist of simple bipolar current mirrors and capacitors and are quite suitable for monolithic integration. Since the filters are based on the integrator type of realization, the proposed method can be used for a wide range of applications. The frequency of the filters can easily be changed by the DC controlling current. A fifth-order Butterworth and a third-order leapfrog filter with tunable cutoff frequencies from 20 MHz to 100 MHz are designed as examples and simulated by SPICE using standard bipolar parameters. |
