Abstract: | Lossless reciprocal 2-ports between terminations with even impedance functions are considered. They are the unifying concept for the synthesis of FDNR and leapfrog RC-active filters in their most general form. The scattering matrix of lossless reciprocal 2-ports with respect to such terminations is defined, its canonic form deduced and the transfer of active power discussed. This scattering matrix is related to the usual scattering matrix of the same 2-port but with respect to unit resistance terminations. In such a way the precise structure of the 2-port as an LC ladder can be deduced from properties of the original transfer function and the termination impedances and the LC synthesis can be performed by conventional methods and programs. An exhaustive enumeration of the different cases that may arise is given. It can give a general outlook on the different RC-active filters that may be obtained. |
