Abstract: | In this paper it is shown that some of the useful network transformations, such as low pass (LP) to band pass (BP), LP to high pass (HP) and HP to BP can be obtained by means of the complementary transformation (CT). Furthermore, because the CT is a topological one (i.e. the component values remain unchanged, but their position within the circuit changes), it is suitable to realize reconfigurable analogue filter arrays. As an example, a full list of the obtainable GIC‐based filters, along with their design equations, is also presented. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
