| Abstract: | Three novel CMOS realizations for the fully differential voltage second‐generation inverting current conveyor (FDVCCII‐) are proposed in this paper. The first realization has a limited input range, and the other two realizations have a rail to rail input range and show excellent features in linearity and bandwidth. As an application to the FDVCCII‐, a floating gyrator is proposed. A floating inductor is realized using the floating gyrator and it is used in realizing a second‐order low‐pass filter, which is simulated and compared with the ideal result. All circuits are simulated with SPICE using CMOS 0.35µm technology and supply voltages ±1.5V to verify the theoretical results. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
