Abstract

This paper presents two transadmittance mode universal filters having single voltage input and multiple current outputs. The filter employs three multiple output current controlled conveyors (MOCCCII) and two grounded capacitors. It can realize low pass, high pass, band pass, notch and all pass responses. As desired, the input voltage signal is inserted at high impedance input terminal and the output currents are obtained at high impedance output terminals and hence eases cascadability. The filter enjoys low sensitivity performance and low component spread; and exhibits electronic and orthogonal tunability of filter parameters via bias currents of MOCCCII. SPICE simulation results confirm the workability of the proposed structure.
